I [25M] was sent unsolicited nude photos from a girl [20sF] online. Should I tell my girlfriend [23F] about this?

tl;dr at the bottom.

I play an MMORPG game and am very social within my clan. This past week, an acquaintance in the game was going through a tough time and I took it upon myself to reach out and try to be a friend and help. I in no way meant to come off as flirtatious, although I did say things in attempt to boost her confidence. Things like "Oh your hair looks nice" in her profile picture on Discord, etc. Nothing romantic, just polite. I assume she took things the wrong way, because she all of a sudden became super attached to me. I saw that as a red flag and tried to keep my responses on the short side, but not flat out ignoring her.

Last night she messaged me on Discord and said "Hey wanna see something?" and so I said "Sure." That's when she sent me several nude photos. I immediately deleted the messages and said "I'm sorry but I have a girlfriend. That's super inappropriate to send to me." and we had a talk about how there's a boundary she needs to not cross with me. We can be friends, but that's all we will be. She was really embarrassed of course, but still.

Now I'm worried about whether or not I should tell my girlfriend. On one hand I'm confident this incident was a one-time thing and won't happen again, but I also don't want to feel like I'm hiding something from my girlfriend. I'm just worried she'll take it the wrong way.

tl;dr: I was sent unsolicited nudes from someone online. I immediately deleted them and had a discussion with the girl that it was not okay to do that since I had a girlfriend. Do I tell my girlfriend about this or continue on like it didn't happen?
