Welcome to this episode of the H.J. Talks About Abuse podcast, where we delve into the pressing issue of sextortion, a form of online blackmail that has become a global crisis. Hosted by Danielle Vincent and her colleague Hannah Hodgson, this episode sheds light on recent cases and the devastating impact on victims.

We discuss the alarming rise of sextortion cases, including a man posing as a YouTube star and a UK-targeting gang known as the Yahoo Boys. Learn about the tactics used by these criminals, from fake identities to AI-generated images, and the severe consequences faced by victims, often leading to tragic outcomes like suicide.

Our hosts emphasise the importance of recognising the signs of sextortion and the need for support and legal action. With insights into the role of social media platforms and the efforts to combat this epidemic, this episode aims to inform and empower listeners.

If you or someone you know is affected by sextortion, it's important to seek help immediately. Resources are available for victims to get the support they need:

This conversation highlights the importance of awareness, education, and open dialogue in preventing online abuse. Stay safe, and always be cautious when interacting with new people online.
