If anyone is reading this and you are in a similar situation, don't kill yourselves. There is so much help in place, just reach out to your parents, cops, your Doctor, place of worship. Help is just a phone call away. Stay positive and strong. Because in a world of bad people, somebody good needs you.
Yes places of worship have always been and continue to be a welcoming safe place to address sexual anything. I don't care what the facts are. It's safe.

Living in the USA at 50 years old Loneliness was physically making me sick. Two years ago I decided to come live in south America and it definitely cured my Loneliness the only problem now is I'm forced to go back home in two weeks. Even though I have a beautiful home in the USA I'm scared t death to go back home and experience loneliness again. South America is so different people are more social. I realized that in south America people don't need a lot to make them happy. I'm probably going to sell my house and retire in south America in the next year or two.

We need to let our children know that they can come to us whenever they encounter challenges. Under no circumstances should they think they are alone, even when it's very bad. It doesn't mean we will encourage them in wrong doing, but we can always find solutions that are way better than destroying themselves. This is heartbreaking

Exactly. This is the responsibility of the parent throughout their upbringing so that by the time they are 17-18 they are making wise choices or they understand when they need help they can talk to a parent or guardian.
This happened to one of my coworkers. He asked us for help and what to do, we told him to contact police and to NEVER pay these clowns any money. Because even if he had paid, they would still have sent the photos around. The girl he matched with, she even face timed him a few times, so from his perspective it was 100% real and a tinder match etc. He sent her stuff when she asked and before you know it she had sent it to everyone including his family members on facebook because he didnt want to send her 10,000$

I had a message come through on yesterday claiming that my device had been hacked and I was being watched by hackers and they were going to send out my search history to everyone. There was also a 2min timer with a link and I needed to go on the link to put a stop to it. These scammers are sick people and I hope all the horrible things they do to people comes back on them or someone they care about. that’s if they have the heart to care about another human being at all
That was 98% a bluff. If the ACTUALLY broke in they would steal photos and give proof in the extortion threat. Threatening with „search history revealing” is a blatent lie and a laughable bluff.
How does that happen and what do you do after that? Pls let me know cause I'm scared of these stuff . So if these things ever happens I could be careful
If u guys accidentally click an unknown link, try to restart your phone as it will cut their connection from taking over your phone or computer. I learned from Mr. "Jim Browning" channel 😇
Tip for everyone: If someone asks you for dirty photos, never plans to meet you in person ever, and refuses to do any video calls with you, please block this person for your sake!!!
Kids need to know - Anytime something overwhelming hits you, come to parents. All is forgiven. You get nothing but total support. Scoldings are reserved only for not shutting the fridge door. Rest gets a hug.
It probably was that he didn't want to live with this "shame" and disappoint their parents 😢 kids don't understand that the worst which could happen to their parents is not having their children anymore 😢 everything else doesn't matter and can be solved
How about developing the mental fortitude to not give a shit. Might sound corny but let me say that we are born into this world naked and when our time passes, we don't take our clothes or hairdos with us. There is nothing to be embarrassed about if somebody has our nude photos or videos. It is not the end of the world, nobody cares, people will move on with their own challenges and any incident (if it ever happens) will be just a story. What truly matters is how we respond to it and gather the strength to become a stronger person and never give in to these fraudsters and never let them dictate our lives. People with enough sense will truly understand our situation and will find inspiration in our resilience.

Yep the kids who buy into it take it too seriously. Your parents have seen you naked, there’s no drama. Just tell the punks to fuck off. And so what people in school will see it too, chances are that if you look good that will only play in your favour with the girls. I wish that I could tell the kids who are a target to this to just come clean to their parents, tell them what’s going on, and let the blackmailers do what they will. Your parents, if they are any decent as such, will get it. As a mum I would totally understand it and even laugh it off a little when the pictures came out, simply adding a “well, now you know!” to it.
@@selmahareYou might think differently if the victims were young girls. Girls were being shamed much more than boys if their naked pictures spread online.

I remember when I was 18yrs old and just opened a YAHOO email account... i got an email from pretending to be a Prince from Nigeria who is ailing and wanted to share his wealth with me. Thank God i didn't get bamboozled.
Yes, also don't let them out of the family home. Now that mention it, don't let them get into water, exercise. Why let them eat to begin with? All extremely dangerous activities.
Happened to me during the covid-19 pandemic when I was feeling lonely and naive. A user in Instagram threatened to release a clip of me to all my Instagram followers. I then quickly blocked that user then went through the list of my followers and removed the profiles which are suspicious to me. Then finally set my profile to private immediately after doing so. That is one lesson I will never forget and will not repeat again. But R.I.P to this boy and condolences to his family.

@@Dorr234 yes, internet is full of scammers including nigeria, but, a 17 year old should be aware that sending nudes over the internet is stupid and immoral
Well that's part of it too. Being aware that once they send something online, they can never get it back. It's all about educating them of the risks and the real dangers so they can better protect themselves, but the ultimate catch-all is knowing that they have support around them should something ever happen. That way, victims don't feel so alone. The sextortion itself is a source of great stress, but the helplessness of feeling alone and unable to tell anyone is why they consider taking their own life.
What is not being addressed is how many of these scammers are actually kidnapped victims being forced into the work. This is happening disproportionately in China, India and other South Eastern areas.
How can a young adult think that having nudes sent to friends is that bad? What kind of ideas did all of the boys who took their life have about sexuality? I think this report is missing a point not talking about conservative upbringing and taboos around sex. I simply cannot imagine what kind of a family you have to grow up in where you'd rather take your life than tell your parents that you sent nudes and are in trouble. That's not normal
Actually, it is quite understandable. Especially in teenage years, it is not unusual for youngsters to try and sort the problem themselves, even when they know they need help. Also, given the evil nature of these criminals, it is possible they threatened to harm the families, too. We can't presume to understand all this young man, and others like him, went through or what we would do under the same circumstances. We can only know that these children were viciously preyed upon, harassed, and worn down. It's a terrible, terrible tragedy! All parents can do is their utmost to raise children who are aware, wise, and able to discern, in advance, the consequence of their actions. You think sending nude pictures to friends is safe? I disagree. Everyone wants and deserves some level of privacy, and when you expose yourself on a phone or video and press 'send', you place that privacy, and possibly your life, in the hands of others and at the whim of their values which, you may find, do not align with yours. Warning children about this, and teaching them to apply caution, wisdom, and integrity in their sexual choices is not conservatism or a taboo; it's good, plain, common sense!
But this is a teen, not an adult. A naked photo of yourself for the world/parents to see/explain, might be mortifying. ..not a reason to commit suicide though
This is actually very common, and not located in just Nigeria. From the top of my head India, Russia, and Saudi Arabia have been doing this also. Absolutely horrible. Poor kid shouldn't have been put through this. When it comes to dating in general, things are just bottom of the barrel.
@@somebloke5565 17 isn't a child!!! Teenagers start voting and joining armies and being sent to battlefield at 18!!! If your nudes being leaked can stress you so much that you kill yourself, then why send them to strangers in the first place?
Sexual oppression has consequences. To turn a natural healthy aspect of life into a shameful demoralizing act will lead to it's natural response, hypocrisy, self hate, deviant unwanted acts on others etc.
only if you're stupid and irresponsible enough to be sending such pictures of yourself to strangers, if you can't meet them irl get multiple pictures, videos,and phone \video calls to confirm they are who they say , if you can't do that then im scared the world has to deal with you.

Back in high school in 2009 a girl’s nude photos were sent to everyone’s phones and she was devastated, but she recovered and didn’t kill herself thankfully
no one wants nudes of himself out in public, dude! You don't know what he was going through! It must have messed up his brain , his core, his very being, having a stranger blackmail him and have tremendous power over him. remember when you were a kid or a young adolescent, in those days, young as you are, you act sometimes irrationally , sometimes you don't think before you act... maybe having those pics of him posted online really did hurt him... I mean he even told the scammer that he would kill himself! it is obvious that he was desperate, he must have cursed at the scammer a thousand times before pleading with him... he must have cried, felt sadder than ever before... he was just 17... young ppl (and not so young) overreact sometimes... Make a mountain out of a molehill, you know... I wish I'm never in that situation that Jordan was in.
They care for a few days at least and apparently they send the photos to family members of the victim. If you are insecure and afraid to speak out , it can seem like the best solution in some people’s minds.
@@SerpentineRiver such an inappropriate comment. A young boy killed himself... There is no good reason for suicide. The boy was pressured to do it, and you want to make assumptions about the boy's genitals? Wtf is wrong with you?

@1:00 Teaching kids to be careful about this should be part of schooling, like in computer science class and/or sex ed. My father warned me early about being careful online because he was a tech computer science dork decades prior to the 90s and 00s when there was punch card programming and giant computers in basements. So, he saw this on the horizon because even they knew what the pros and cons were back then.
If your pics get leaked, just say it's AI and it's not you dong. Everything is fake nowadays, so if you tell friends your pics are fake, they'll believe you.
Oh my gosh my heart is broken. I will pray tonight for this mom. Wow. The solution I think also is for kids to have “dumb phones” while being educated about this so that when they get a smart phone on their own they aren’t falling prey. When I counsel young ppl and parents I tell them NEVER communicate with someone online that you don’t know in person. NEVER
If you have kids and want them to be safe, give them a phone that IS NOT a smart phone. Text and voice only. Allow computer use in an area like the kitchen only.
Not giving a smartphone to a child would be best but realistically isn’t possible. Should parents be taking their child’s phone and reading their messages and their social media checks, to check if they are targeted. It’s a tricky one

@@jungresonant9772 sorry to offend you my brother. I was just being a little sarcastic dick with my response . its one of those moments when one should hold their tongue in polite company . my apologies.
It's not only about talking to the kids. It's about monitoring their device use. No child has 'privacy' on their devices. All parents are ultimately the ones who have to help the child pick up the pieces after a mistake so they must monitor what the kids do on the devices. They must know who kids talk to and the content of chats. No one must be allowed to communicate with children without the parents' consent. This should grow into some form of counsel and discussion through adulthood too. Kids need sound counsel from experienced people.
I think with the rise of AI generated images, this issue should be a TOP priority for parents and authorities. There are strong chances they will be affected by these types of fraud and they must know how to deal with it and that it isn't worth losing your life over it.
This recently happened to me, in fact as I write it happened this day. I know why I didn't care when they threatened to expose the pictures. Becouse lost of my friends sext so I didn't worry about their judgment. If my employers saw it, I don't really care becouse sexting is not exactly taboo in modern culture I would say, but in fact quite common at least where I'm from in the UK. If my parents saw it, well they are from generation X and had the sort of upbringing in the UK were sexting I believe would be considered a taboo from their culture and a shameful act. Yet I could live with their judgment becouse I know they love me no matter what, even if they judge me a degenerate not that I think sexting is a degenerate act only I believe they would. And I suppose that's all there is to worry about, am I missing something? I don't know why someone would kill themselves over sexting other than extreme embarrassment and fear of shame and judgment from those around them they care most about, so rather than face it they end their life. I wont deny, realising that I had sent nudes some creep online instead of a real girl that was interested was embarrassing, but I suppose a big help for my lack of care was my experience in going to the hospital. I had a diabetic attack and discovered I have diabetes type 1. In there I had to piss in a box they gave me, be showered by another man and even wet myself as a 23 year old man because I was unable to walk to the toilet at the time. So embarrassing and it rid me of my dignity, perhaps that was more of a good thing, perhaps if I had not had that experience I would not be numb to embarrassing situations. I puked up on the bus to collage more than once in front of everyone and well that helped in its own way to help me grow numb to embarrassment. The point I'm making is that in order to prevent suicide due to sexting is to normalise sexting. Which at least around where I live or at the very least in my social circle of men, it is normal. For kids though yeah its different, solution: parents, upon realising the risk of sexting, console your children or child, immediately/asap go to them and tell them that if they ever do sexting, that you will still love them and wont hate them. If you've been or become a victim of sexting, remember that others have gone through it as well, you are not alone and don't give in to fear, it happened, get over it and move on. It is very rare I believe that people will care after a month that you did sexting, vast majority of the time people forget and move on. Soo don't fear judgment, embrace it, accept it, and master it. And to anyone who is not a victim, keep all this in mind as well as this: always be ready to accept the risks and consequences of sexting when you send nudes to a stranger who may or may not be whom they claim to be.

Exactly. This is the responsibility of the parent throughout their upbringing so that by the time they are 17-18 they are making wise choices or they understand when they need help they can talk to a parent or guardian.
This happened to one of my coworkers. He asked us for help and what to do, we told him to contact police and to NEVER pay these clowns any money. Because even if he had paid, they would still have sent the photos around. The girl he matched with, she even face timed him a few times, so from his perspective it was 100% real and a tinder match etc. He sent her stuff when she asked and before you know it she had sent it to everyone including his family members on facebook because he didnt want to send her 10,000$
And then? Did people care or did everyone move on after saying "yikes" and then deleting it?
@@clankb2o5 People cared, and people moved on. But the idea of this blackmailing should be said to young people on these apps or better yet just giving people forewarning before sending explicit photos

I had a message come through on yesterday claiming that my device had been hacked and I was being watched by hackers and they were going to send out my search history to everyone. There was also a 2min timer with a link and I needed to go on the link to put a stop to it. These scammers are sick people and I hope all the horrible things they do to people comes back on them or someone they care about. that’s if they have the heart to care about another human being at all
That was 98% a bluff. If the ACTUALLY broke in they would steal photos and give proof in the extortion threat. Threatening with „search history revealing” is a blatent lie and a laughable bluff.
How does that happen and what do you do after that? Pls let me know cause I'm scared of these stuff . So if these things ever happens I could be careful
Were you on some websites? Cause ain't no way they can do that while you're not using web service.
Don’t click on links and don’t share sensitive information about your self no matter what.
If u guys accidentally click an unknown link, try to restart your phone as it will cut their connection from taking over your phone or computer.
I learned from
Mr. "Jim Browning" channel 😇
Tip for everyone: If someone asks you for dirty photos, never plans to meet you in person ever, and refuses to do any video calls with you, please block this person for your sake!!!

How about banning nude photos. AI is capable of this.
How about developing the mental fortitude to not give a shit. Might sound corny but let me say that we are born into this world naked and when our time passes, we don't take our clothes or hairdos with us. There is nothing to be embarrassed about if somebody has our nude photos or videos. It is not the end of the world, nobody cares, people will move on with their own challenges and any incident (if it ever happens) will be just a story. What truly matters is how we respond to it and gather the strength to become a stronger person and never give in to these fraudsters and never let them dictate our lives. People with enough sense will truly understand our situation and will find inspiration in our resilience.
Having too much shame is detrimental in this world.

Yep the kids who buy into it take it too seriously. Your parents have seen you naked, there’s no drama. Just tell the punks to fuck off. And so what people in school will see it too, chances are that if you look good that will only play in your favour with the girls. I wish that I could tell the kids who are a target to this to just come clean to their parents, tell them what’s going on, and let the blackmailers do what they will. Your parents, if they are any decent as such, will get it. As a mum I would totally understand it and even laugh it off a little when the pictures came out, simply adding a “well, now you know!” to it.

Globally !
India and Nigeria are the most well known countries with scammers. I don't think it's a global thing because other countries aren't as embedded in scams as those two. There's an entire district of Mumbai dedicated to online scams with call-centres in office blocks.

Yes, also don't let them out of the family home. Now that mention it, don't let them get into water, exercise. Why let them eat to begin with? All extremely dangerous activities.
Right on
What a sick world we live in.
Happened to me during the covid-19 pandemic when I was feeling lonely and naive. A user in Instagram threatened to release a clip of me to all my Instagram followers. I then quickly blocked that user then went through the list of my followers and removed the profiles which are suspicious to me. Then finally set my profile to private immediately after doing so. That is one lesson I will never forget and will not repeat again. But R.I.P to this boy and condolences to his family.

Isn't it better to campaign against youngsters showing their bare parts to strangers on the internet?
Well that's part of it too. Being aware that once they send something online, they can never get it back. It's all about educating them of the risks and the real dangers so they can better protect themselves, but the ultimate catch-all is knowing that they have support around them should something ever happen. That way, victims don't feel so alone. The sextortion itself is a source of great stress, but the helplessness of feeling alone and unable to tell anyone is why they consider taking their own life.
we defenitley need more cyber security experts in Canada and UK to prevent these kind of stories from repeating.
no, parents need to step up and remind their kids to respect themselves
Nigeria, now why does that not surprise me
That young man was beautiful inside and out. What a tremendous loss, and what unconscionable cruelty on behalf of the scammers. It's so sad.
Omg this poor young man, and his poor family, this breaks my heart.
kid couldnt handle being bullied longer than 6 hrs? pathetic
What is not being addressed is how many of these scammers are actually kidnapped victims being forced into the work. This is happening disproportionately in China, India and other South Eastern areas.
Yeah, I also have that in mind. ☹️
How can a young adult think that having nudes sent to friends is that bad? What kind of ideas did all of the boys who took their life have about sexuality? I think this report is missing a point not talking about conservative upbringing and taboos around sex. I simply cannot imagine what kind of a family you have to grow up in where you'd rather take your life than tell your parents that you sent nudes and are in trouble. That's not normal
He could have been struggling with other things and this was the straw that broke the camels back.
Actually, it is quite understandable. Especially in teenage years, it is not unusual for youngsters to try and sort the problem themselves, even when they know they need help. Also, given the evil nature of these criminals, it is possible they threatened to harm the families, too. We can't presume to understand all this young man, and others like him, went through or what we would do under the same circumstances. We can only know that these children were viciously preyed upon, harassed, and worn down. It's a terrible, terrible tragedy!
All parents can do is their utmost to raise children who are aware, wise, and able to discern, in advance, the consequence of their actions. You think sending nude pictures to friends is safe? I disagree. Everyone wants and deserves some level of privacy, and when you expose yourself on a phone or video and press 'send', you place that privacy, and possibly your life, in the hands of others and at the whim of their values which, you may find, do not align with yours. Warning children about this, and teaching them to apply caution, wisdom, and integrity in their sexual choices is not conservatism or a taboo; it's good, plain, common sense!

Their son sent naked pictures of himself to people. So it's kinda his own doing.
i don’t get it. so he would rather die than to have nudes of him posted online? like anyone even cares these days
no one wants nudes of himself out in public, dude! You don't know what he was going through! It must have messed up his brain , his core, his very being, having a stranger blackmail him and have tremendous power over him. remember when you were a kid or a young adolescent, in those days, young as you are, you act sometimes irrationally , sometimes you don't think before you act... maybe having those pics of him posted online really did hurt him... I mean he even told the scammer that he would kill himself! it is obvious that he was desperate, he must have cursed at the scammer a thousand times before pleading with him... he must have cried, felt sadder than ever before... he was just 17... young ppl (and not so young) overreact sometimes... Make a mountain out of a molehill, you know... I wish I'm never in that situation that Jordan was in.
They care for a few days at least and apparently they send the photos to family members of the victim.
If you are insecure and afraid to speak out , it can seem like the best solution in some people’s minds.

@1:00 Teaching kids to be careful about this should be part of schooling, like in computer science class and/or sex ed. My father warned me early about being careful online because he was a tech computer science dork decades prior to the 90s and 00s when there was punch card programming and giant computers in basements. So, he saw this on the horizon because even they knew what the pros and cons were back then.
If your pics get leaked, just say it's AI and it's not you dong. Everything is fake nowadays, so if you tell friends your pics are fake, they'll believe you.
This is 😢 😔 extremely sad. i can't even imagine. My heart goes❤out to the family, my sincere condolences 🙏 🌹
Oh my gosh my heart is broken. I will pray tonight for this mom. Wow. The solution I think also is for kids to have “dumb phones” while being educated about this so that when they get a smart phone on their own they aren’t falling prey. When I counsel young ppl and parents I tell them NEVER communicate with someone online that you don’t know in person. NEVER
If you have kids and want them to be safe, give them a phone that IS NOT a smart phone. Text and voice only. Allow computer use in an area like the kitchen only.
It’s just sad to hear what happened to her son because he clearly would have a good future
How do you know? No one knows the future

Internet access is a powerful tool, often, parents do not realize its dangers.
It's not only about talking to the kids. It's about monitoring their device use. No child has 'privacy' on their devices. All parents are ultimately the ones who have to help the child pick up the pieces after a mistake so they must monitor what the kids do on the devices. They must know who kids talk to and the content of chats. No one must be allowed to communicate with children without the parents' consent.
This should grow into some form of counsel and discussion through adulthood too. Kids need sound counsel from experienced people.
bunch of pussies xD
I think with the rise of AI generated images, this issue should be a TOP priority for parents and authorities. There are strong chances they will be affected by these types of fraud and they must know how to deal with it and that it isn't worth losing your life over it.
This recently happened to me, in fact as I write it happened this day. I know why I didn't care when they threatened to expose the pictures. Becouse lost of my friends sext so I didn't worry about their judgment. If my employers saw it, I don't really care becouse sexting is not exactly taboo in modern culture I would say, but in fact quite common at least where I'm from in the UK. If my parents saw it, well they are from generation X and had the sort of upbringing in the UK were sexting I believe would be considered a taboo from their culture and a shameful act. Yet I could live with their judgment becouse I know they love me no matter what, even if they judge me a degenerate not that I think sexting is a degenerate act only I believe they would. And I suppose that's all there is to worry about, am I missing something? I don't know why someone would kill themselves over sexting other than extreme embarrassment and fear of shame and judgment from those around them they care most about, so rather than face it they end their life.
I wont deny, realising that I had sent nudes some creep online instead of a real girl that was interested was embarrassing, but I suppose a big help for my lack of care was my experience in going to the hospital. I had a diabetic attack and discovered I have diabetes type 1. In there I had to piss in a box they gave me, be showered by another man and even wet myself as a 23 year old man because I was unable to walk to the toilet at the time. So embarrassing and it rid me of my dignity, perhaps that was more of a good thing, perhaps if I had not had that experience I would not be numb to embarrassing situations. I puked up on the bus to collage more than once in front of everyone and well that helped in its own way to help me grow numb to embarrassment.
The point I'm making is that in order to prevent suicide due to sexting is to normalise sexting. Which at least around where I live or at the very least in my social circle of men, it is normal. For kids though yeah its different, solution: parents, upon realising the risk of sexting, console your children or child, immediately/asap go to them and tell them that if they ever do sexting, that you will still love them and wont hate them. If you've been or become a victim of sexting, remember that others have gone through it as well, you are not alone and don't give in to fear, it happened, get over it and move on. It is very rare I believe that people will care after a month that you did sexting, vast majority of the time people forget and move on. Soo don't fear judgment, embrace it, accept it, and master it. And to anyone who is not a victim, keep all this in mind as well as this: always be ready to accept the risks and consequences of sexting when you send nudes to a stranger who may or may not be whom they claim to be.
For the people who think sexual exploitation never affects males...
