Woman reports Tinder match to police after disturbing questions left her horrified

A woman has spoken out after reporting a man she matched with on Tinder to the police after a disturbing online conversation with him.

Nicholas Wallace matched with a woman on the popular dating app - who wished to remain anonymous - on October 12, when their conversations began.

The woman, who is from Florida, said the conversation with the 29-year-old was initially flirty and cheeky but she became concerned when he started to ask intimate and personal questions.

Mr Wallace reportedly messaged her saying: ‘What age did you first mess around?' to which the woman said: "I was 13, and I had it taken from me unwillingly."

After this, the man admitted that he was interested in pursuing underage girls, which immediately disgusted the woman he was speaking with.

She, who is a victim of child abuse, quickly forwarded their Tinder conversation to a friend of hers who works in the police.

Her friend responded to her and asked that she try to get more information from Mr. Wallace.

She said: "I decided to ask what was the youngest that he would go, and he said, ‘Do you really [want to] know?’"

The woman said Mr. Wallace allegedly told her he engaged with an 8-year-old as he tried to defend himself.

He said he had “‘never forced or anything, started off slow, always played [sexually explicit phrase], loved all that stuff.’”

Later in the conversation he reportedly admitted to having sex with the young girl - which promted the woman to report him to the police immediately.

After passing her details onto the law enforcement, Columbia County officers went undercover using her Tinder profile to get more information from him.

At some point, Mr. Wallace allegedly spoke of his disturbing desires and fantasies, and even sent over four pictures of kids being sexually abused along with additional information on how he groomed children for sex.

Columbia County police were able to track Mr Wallace's location in Ocala, in Florida, and informed the Marion County Sheriff's Office who confirmed they were already investigating him.

He allegedly uploaded child sex abuse material to social media and was being monitored by officers.

Mr Wallace was arrested on October 14 facing several charges including the transmission of child pornography, possession of child pornography, and promoting the sexual performance of a minor.

He is currently being held on a $95,000 (€96,330) bail and is due to appear in court on November 15.

The woman who matched with Mr Wallace later admitted the experience has forced her to delete her Tinder account and app and said the ordeal has left her horrified.

She told News 6: "You don’t realise who you’re talking to, you have no idea who the person on the other end is.
