What should you do if someone is blackmailing you?

Blackmail is a broad subject and there are many ways to blackmail somebody but as it is illegal to blackmail then it should be reported to the Police as a first option.

Blackmail means to extort something from another who is unwilling.

One example below:

(Teenagers/Children) For those of you that are being asked or forced into doing things you wouldn't normally do on the internet, social media or by text, for example; sending unclothed or indecent images of yourself and receiving some back. Stop and ignore all future messages from them and ignore any threats that they will expose your pictures to the World, your family or friends. These threats are false in the hope that you will continue to send more images or to try and extract money from you. Con people do this and they hope they can embarrass you so you don't stop doing it. They are men or women who are much older than you, they are liars and cheats as nothing they have told you is true and images they send you are not them.

These people do not hold any power over you in reality if you delete their messages without any reply. Just send the one final message saying you have contacted the Police about them, even if you don't.

You may be surprised that this type of con is very common and many teenagers fall for it. It happens more than you might think. What those people are doing is blackmail and illegal so if you ignore them they will go away. You must not reply to anything further from them no matter what they message you. Eventually they will get bored and go away. Change your contact details, your passwords, email address or anything they can contact you by if you need to and try not to fall for that type of con again.

Whatever it is that you did it doesn't matter, and I mean whatever. You will not be blamed or ridiculed for it if anyone found out. The law is on your side. It is those con people that will be prosecuted not you when they are caught. They will be doing it to many others at the same time so it would be good if you had the courage to report it.

Don't worry because you feel you have nobody to tell about this because you are embarrassed or scared you will be made a fool of or everyone will see what you did. It won't happen, the images would be kept very private, even from family. You can always approach the Police and they will help you. You are not to blame !

How can you protect children from failure?

You can't. You can do a lot to increase their chances of success, though. Before interfering, you need to make sure that your definition of 'success' is the same as theirs. Lots of children will be happy without lots of paper qualification and a job with a 6-digit salary. Communication is the key here.

You must lead by example, encourage them to be socially interactive, and show them the multiple options that are available for them.

What are the signs your account has been hacked?

if a social networking site then you will get posts, saying random things, one case where they would say "is happy" or they would say insults to your friends and they would start deleting stuff off of your account such as friends, pictures, also they would change your password, pictures will be added randomly.

some sites such as facebook will have a system where when your account has been logged in, in a different country it will say when, where, your account was logged in last if the location listed is not the location where you last logged in then I would recommend that you change your password because your account has been hacked.

Is there com safe for kids?

Yes, There.com is safe for all. There are children on that game. To be safe, don't mention any personal information like where you live, your real full name, your school, etc. There.com is a great game and it's safe, and there are no viruses. There are some web sites that are more kid safe than others, but no site is 100% safe without guidance from a trusted adult. Anyone can say they are eight year old little Johnny from Albuquerque. Your best bet is to check out a web site before allowing your child on it. Educate them as to what information it is OK to tell and why. You should be the one to set up their account. Make sure it does not ask for more information than you are willing to give. Also, by you setting up their account, you can make sure their proper birth date is included. If your child is under the age of 12, many web sites add extra safe guards to their accounts. Check in on them once and a while. My kids have accounts at a few child oriented web sites. I made my own accounts there and check in on them. They know I am on their sites, and are OK with it.
