Police see increase in reports of “Sextortion”

Police see increase in reports of “Sextortion”

(CMR) The RCIPS said over the last two months, there has been a rise in the number of reported “sextortion” cases, which are usually linked to the sharing of indecent images on social media platforms, such as Facebook.

The term “sextortion” relates to the practice of trying to extort money or sexual favors from someone by threatening to reveal evidence of sexual behavior, including nude images.

The perpetrator will threaten to release images obtained from the victim to the victim’s family, work, or contacts on social media. The perpetrator (in almost all cases from abroad) will demand payment in exchange for not sharing the images and will often make contact with someone from the victim’s friends list.

RCIPS advises people never to share indecent images of themselves online, as once these images are released, they are out of their control and can be freely shared on the internet. Persons who become victims of this type of digital crime are advised not to pay a ransom but to delete all accounts linked to the perpetrator.

For further information on digital crime, you may contact [email protected].
