Brandon D. Kane, 27, of Baltimore, is charged with making extortionate threats in interstate commerce, the US Attorney for Massachusetts said.
Kane is accused of matching with women in Eastern Massachusetts on various dating apps, and during their dates, he would secretly film them using drugs or having sex with him, the prosecutor said. He'd then threaten to send those videos to their family members or bosses if they didn't pay him cash.
Kane faces up to two years in prison and a potential $250,000 fine if convicted.
