Many of you remember we’ve had the White Hatter as a presenter for our school in the past. They’ve recently shared this video as part of their commitment to the safety and well-being of our youth.

“As you may be aware, online sextortion has become a clear and present threat to teens. From January 2020 to December 2022, we have assisted 129 teens under the age of 18yrs who have been targeted by a sexualized troll and extorted for money or more pictures/video. In most cases, the sextortion began within 40 minutes of initial contact with the targeted youth online,” from the White Hatter.

"We hope this resource will be helpful in keeping your students safer online and your parents more informed on this specific online threat", White Hatter.
