Blackmail is a situation in which you agree not to share some piece of information in exchange for money or cooperation. If you have a crime to report and go straight to the police with it, you will not be blackmailing anybody. If you are being blackmailed into withholding evidence of a crime, you can't prevent it from being blackmail. You either have to cooperate or report the crime and ask the police to protect you.
Blackmail is a crime.....if it is indeed blackmail you can have a chat with the police and they'll help you stop it.
