| 1-I am worried about getting caught. 2-I am worried about my getting caught. 3-I am worried about me getting caught. In which case the getting caught is: a-a possibility (I am worried that I might get caught) b-a certainty (I did, or will get caught and am worried about the consequences) c-depends on the context. |

| I would say either:
The other sentences are not idiomatic English. They are quite unlikely, and I recommend against using them. :) |

| I'd be more likely to use me\my getting caught with 'I worry'. |
