The girl using the fake identity of a male person, suggested a plan to sexually assault herself, to which the receiver declined to participate.


The boy who received the message took a screenshot of the chat and reported it to his friends, including the girl about whom the supposed conversation had happened. The girl, being aware of the fact that the account of 'Siddharth' was the same fake/fictional one that she had created. She did not report it to anyone.
