(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kris Humphries is reportedly at the centre of an extortion plot.

The basketball player, who is currently going through a divorce from Kim Kardashian, had apparently dated Myla Sinanaj for a short period but was not in a serious relationship with her.

RadarOnline reports that Myla was allegedly telling media outlets that they were serious and then tried to get money out of Kris to remain silent.

"Myla is truly acting like a woman scorned," a source told the site. "She didn't get what she wanted from Kris and threatened to go to the press and ruin him if he didn't pay her off."

"Myla wanted millions of dollars; it was outrageous. Kris has nothing to hide and decided to have his attorney, Lee Hutton, contact the FBI.

"Kris will meet with the FBI this week and turn over text messages and emails he had exchanged with Myla. Kris had to go to the FBI because he truly believes that she is capable of making up crazy lies about him."

Kris' marriage with Kim lasted 72 days. The basketball player believes that his entire relationship with Kim was staged and will present proof of this at the former couple's upcoming deposition in June. (C) Cover Media
