Recovering from a recent breakup, 18-year-old Zach travels to Ireland for the summer. The wild pubs and flowing alcohol give him the social life he always dreamed of until heartbreak hits him once again. He turns to dating apps, where he is quickly contacted by Malaya, a beautiful woman from the Philippines, who offers to jump on a video call for virtual sex. The call is recorded, and blackmail follows: he must pay or the video will be sent to his friends and family. In San Francisco, Analyn struggles to follow up her first book about her childhood in the Philippines. But when she discovers the family computer was used to scam strangers online, inspiration strikes. Chloé is a rising star in the world of internet security. She spends her time reporting vulnerabilities to tech companies and mining cryptocurrencies. But when she finds out that one of her loved ones was a victim of online blackmail, she drops everything to go after the extortionist.
