Online perpetrators might gain your trust by pretending to be someone they are not.

They lurk in chat rooms and record young people who post or live-stream sexually explicit images and videos of themselves, or they may hack into your electronic devices using malware to gain access to your files and control your web camera and microphone without you knowing it.

Here are some things you can do to avoid becoming a victim:

Never send compromising images of yourself to anyone, no matter who they are—or who they say they are.
Do not open attachments from people you do not know.
Turn off your electronic devices and web cameras when you are not using them.
If you are receiving sextortion threats, you are not alone.

It is likely the perpetrator is an adult pretending to be a teenager, and you are just one of the many victims being targeted by the same person.

Do not be afraid to talk to an adult or a friend. Don't be a victim. We have lost 45 young lives to suicide so far.

Help us find these criminals and stop them from damaging young lives.
