MILLION KIDS EXPLOITED - Seduced the Grooming of America's Teenagers MillionKids.org

    • News Commentary

Opal Singleton is the author of a book with the same title that shares about how predators use online relationships to create a false narrative about engaging in a caring and supportive relationships, then using that fantasy to groom and exploit their victims.  The basics of online seduction are still the same but technology transformations have greatly accelerated the access to victims, facilitated payment processes for blackmailers, and artificial intelligence now allows the ability to alter images erotically and begin a blackmail process for completely uninvolved and innocent victims.  

 

Global technology connections means that cartels around the globe can access, groom, recruit and exploit our kids.  There is an urgent need for parents and grandparents to help teens (and anyone with an online device) to understand how sending ANY kind of image/video or erotic live streaming can change their lives forever.  What looks like a cute young guy/girl can easily be an organized
criminal unit consisting of a chatter and a group of thugs looking to destroy their lives forever.  We must educate everyone, that ANYONE WHO IS ASKING FOR A NUDE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND.
