A recent Sextortion has police warning everyone about sending intimate videos or pictures.
A 13 year old from North Perth recently fell victim to someone they met on a social media app.
Pictures were sent, before the suspect threatened to release them if more were not sent.
Police say a Sextortion happens when videos, or images are threatened to be released unless more are sent or money is sent.
Remember before you hit send you have no control where the image or video ends up.
If someone demands money or more pictures, block them, screen shot messages and call police.
If you are a victim of the sextortion scam call police at 1-888-310-1122 or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Center at 1-888-495-8501.
