Chicago Bachelor, Nikko D’Ambrosio, Sues 27 Women For $75 Million After They Left Negative Facebook Reviews Calling Him 'Very Clingy'

32-year-old Nikko D’Ambrosio alleges that his reputation was damaged after his name and photo appeared on the Facebook group's Chicago edition last year. 

This led to numerous defamatory remarks about him, as stated in the lawsuit filed earlier this week.

The private Facebook group started in New York City and is part of a network where women share their bad dating experiences in various cities, seeking advice on potential "red flags."

According to D’Ambrosio, he met the woman who made the initial post at an event in Chicago last year, where they had consensual sex on the same night. 

They went on several "unremarkable" dates, but, as D’Ambrosio mentioned, they were never exclusively dating.

He claims that this woman later posted false accusations about him in the group, saying he became "very clingy very fast," showed off his wealth, and made intimidating remarks like, "I don’t want to see his bad side, especially when he was on business calls."

D’Ambrosio's complaint states that the woman originally posted under her real name but reposted anonymously after his lawyers reached out last month.

The post led to a wave of comments from other women sharing their own experiences or recalling previous warnings about him. 

One woman commented, as shown in a screenshot in the lawsuit, "I went out with him a few times just over a year ago — he told me what I wanted to hear until I slept with him and then he ghosted … I’d steer clear." 

Another woman mentioned, "He’s been posted here before. The poster said he sent her a slew of texts calling her names because she didn’t want to spend the night with him."

D’Ambrosio is suing 27 identified women, including the group's moderators, along with several unnamed individuals and parts of Facebook’s parent company, Meta.

He's seeking $75 million in damages, claiming he suffered defamation, doxxing, and invasion of privacy. 

The lawsuit argues, "The defendants broadcast their outrageous, cruel, and malicious lies about the plaintiff with knowledge that the statements were false or with reckless disregard as whether or not they were true."

"[Their] wrongful conduct is so outrageous in character and so extreme in degree that it is beyond all possible bounds of decency and is to be regarded as atrocious and utterly intolerable in a civilized community."
