Online sextortion is a rising cybercrime where scammers trick individuals into sharing personal or intimate content, then threaten to leak it unless money or more content is sent. It often begins with a friendly chat, a fake profile, or a harmless flirt and quickly turns into emotional blackmail, financial loss, and severe mental distress. Look out for red flags: Unknown profiles initiating private chats or video calls Requests to move conversations to encrypted apps Urgent demands for photos, videos, or money Stay calm. Don't engage. Report sextortion attempts immediately. Spot the Scam! Stop the Scam!
