BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network): Police have warned that “cyber sextortion” gangs are luring children to send photos of themselves naked in exchange for rare items from online games.
The gangs contact children via chat features in social media or within the games. They then offer digital items from the games to lure them into sending nude photos, which are later used to extort money from the victims, said police spokeswoman Noppawan Panya (pic) on Sunday.
