Daniel Shellner | Shield Interpol | Extortion Scam
How The Scam Works
Daniel Shellner is operating a worldwide extortion scheme. While claiming to be an international police agency called “Shield Interpol” Daniel Shellner posts false information about his targets online and then attempts to extort money from them.
As a general rule it’s a good idea to seek legal advice right away if anyone is trying to blackmail or extort money from you. As advised by the legal council we’ve documented all communication, we’ve protected our financial and personal information, we’ve certainly not paid the extortionist, and we’ve filed a complaint with the FBI. Complaints can be filed with your local police station if the extortionist is located within the same state as you but if not – it’s the FBI’s jurisdiction and you’ll need to fill out an IC3.
You can use the FBI’s online locator to find the nearest field office at: https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/field-offices.
Felony extortion may be punished with 2-4 years in county jail and a fine of up to $10,000. We’re doing everything we can do to ensure that Daniel Shellner serves time and pays a fine.

Fraud Alert BEWARE OF FRAUDSTERS and SCAMMERS! Neither INTERPOL nor INTERPOL Washington contacts private citizens to request personal information. INTERPOL Washington communicates with official law enforcement officials only. INTERPOL is aware of emails and phone calls from individuals claiming to be officials or agents of INTERPOL or INTERPOL Washington that ask for personal or financial information. These messages often imply that they are trying to verify information or offer protection. The messages may also include a threat that a citizen will be considered a criminal if he or she does not comply. If an individual receives an email or phone call from someone claiming to represent INTERPOL or INTERPOL Washington, and personal information or bank account information is requested, the request should be ignored; neither personal nor financial information should be provided. In cases where personal or financial information is inadvertently provided, local law enforcement should be contacted immediately to determine how to proceed.
Daniel Shellner attempts to scare and threaten his targets into paying him to have the false comments removed and/or to pay him to secure a defense against a fake e warrant.
