And if you want to learn from someone who used to investigate sextortion cases in a big social media company, read my two novels CALL ME GWAPO and FIVE MORE PIXS.

I used to work on sextortion cases almost full time up to 2018. So many cases, so many victims. Reading about a 400% increase over the last 4 years breaks my heart. Why isn’t digital safety a mandatory class in school yet?

NEW - For the last year, the FBI has been chasing an Instagram user pretending to be a Californian girl who tricked at least 30 boys into sharing intimate photos to extort them.

One teenager paid $1,500 in Apple gift cards. He later took his own life:

"Some of the shocking abuse our taskforce sees being perpetrated against children is so extreme, we only allow them to work four hour shifts, taking regular breaks, and with access to the best counselling and support," said our CEO Susie Hargreaves. https://t.co/pGREBDKC1j

Imagine living in a country where you're shunned 'cos you were born elsewhere?
Imagine living in a country where choices are not your own?
Imagine living in a modern country where contraception & abortion are illegal?

@world_moved_on I really believe in that novel too! It’s sooooo good - I can’t wait to read the final version, it being self- or traditionally published. All the best in querying! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

"Marking 25 years of combatting child sexual abuse imagery on the internet is bittersweet." Our CEO Susie Hargreaves reflects on the past 25 years and her 10 years leading the organisation in our latest Annual Report. https://t.co/xqvWigrhyd #25YearsIWF

54% des 8-11 ans ont un compte #TikTok

Malgré l'interdiction du réseau social au moins de 13 ans : c'est leur réseau favori.

Il est nécessaire de sécuriser avec eux leurs paramètres de confidentialité🔐

On vous donne des #conseils dans cet article

In an online environment where everyone can make up their own screen name and handle, it can be hard to know who to trust. Remain cautious, especially when speaking with someone online who you have not met in real life. #StopSextortion

[Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) @IWFhotline]

Reporting is quick, easy and anonymous and it can lead to the rescue of a child from further abuse. The only thing we need is the URL of the page where you’ve seen the illegal image or video. We don’t need your details, just your help. https://t.co/PM1EUTfTot

Hello #writingcommunity - I need some help. I am assisting a young writer (17) & I need examples of novels that are close third which shift between POVs. Currently she has 5 POVs - the main protagonists. She is writing #yafantasy
Thank you
