ALERT Says Sextortion Cases Rising | Tuesday, February 7, 2023 | Micah Quinn | Bridge City News
There is a global sextortion crisis taking place in our country. That’s according to officials with ALERT. Law enforcement agencies have seen a large increase in the number of sextortion cases, where children are being coerced into sending explicit images online and then extorted for money.
The Canadian Centre For Child Protection says it receives 200 sextortion cases on average per month. This means 87 per cent of sextortion incidents reported are affecting boys between the ages of 10 to 17.
Detective Steve Brighton with the Internet Child Exploitation Unit talked about the rising number of sextortion cases that are being seen through Project Compass.
If you have information about a child who is potentially being exploited you can contact the Lethbridge Police or submit a concern anonymously at cybertip.ca
