The National Crime Agency (NCA) has issued an alert to schools across the UK about financially motivated sexual extortion or ‘sextortion’. This type of blackmail involves a person being forced into paying money or meeting another financial demand, following a threat to release nude or semi-nude photos of them. The alert explains how to spot signs of this type of abuse and support affected children. Guidance is also included to share with parents and carers.
