    PROTECTING CHILDREN AGAINST

    ONLINE PREDATORS

    Matthew D. Krueger
    United States Attorney
    Eastern District of Wisconsin
    POTENTIAL DANGERS TO WATCH FOR

     Adults, usually posing as children, will make casual contact with children to:

     Gain their trust, and introduce sexual conversations over time.

     Next they will try to coerce children/victims into providing sexually explicit images or videos of
    themselves. Many times they will promise victims gifts or money.

     Once your children have sent sexually explicit images or videos, offenders threaten to post their
    images publicly or send the images to victims’ friends and family.

     Offenders do this to ensure that more photos and videos will be sent and to get their victims to
    comply with their online sexual demands.
    PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN

     Discuss Internet safety with children of all ages.


     Explain that images posted online will stay on the Internet permanently.
     Set privacy settings to the strictest level possible for online gaming systems
    and electronic devices.
     Keep electronic devices in an open, common room of the house. Do not
    permit online access in a closed room.
     Frequently check your children’s online activity, profiles, and postings.
    Prevent your children from deleting their online activity.

    REPORTED TO A PARENT, GUARDIAN, OR OTHER TRUSTED ADULT AND LAW ENFORCEMENT.

    REMEMBER THAT VICTIMS SHOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO TELL LAW ENFORCEMENT IF THEY ARE BEING SEXUALLY EXPLOITED. IT IS NOT A CRIME
