A new report on the rise in Child Exploitation by " Sextortion"

Health and Wellbeing Children & Young People

The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) has published an article which reports a rise in children tricked into sharing sexual images of themselves by individuals intending to extort money or further imagery from them.

The IWF found that in the first six months of 2023, reports of confirmed child sexual abuse involving ‘sextortion’ rose by 257% compared with the whole of 2022. The report found that older teenagers, aged 14 to 17-years-old were the most at risk.
