Safer Internet Day is February 7th Register for this Free Webinar

In recognition of Safer Internet Day on February 7th, we thought you may be interested in this informative webinar about sextortion awareness and prevention. The National Criminal Justice Training Center, through the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force Program, is providing their expertise for this webinar.

Self-Generated Content (sexting) sharing has become ever increasingly normative behavior for youth. This behavior can lead to Sextortion scams where offenders obtain explicit content and then pressure the victim to send money or send additional explicit content. Financial sextortion has become a significant danger for our youth, especially boys, and is often perpetrated by organized crime groups in Nigeria or the Ivory Coast. These threats can cause shame, fear and confusion and have led some victims to suicidal behaviors. This presentation will identify tactics used to target victims and will focus on awareness and preventive messaging to help provide protective factors for youth.
