▸ Never share your full name, school, address, or daily schedule online.
▸ Use different passwords for every account.
▸ Turn off location services on social media.
▸ Google yourself. See what a stranger would find.
▸ Anyone who asks you to keep your relationship secret: red flag.
▸ Anyone who asks for photos of your body: predator. Block. Report. Tell.
▸ Anyone who says ‘you’re mature for your age’: that is a strategy, not a compliment.
If You Are Being Blackmailed
▸ Do NOT send more images. The blackmail will not stop.
▸ Screenshot everything. Save every message.
▸ Tell a parent, counselor, or call the Cyber Tipline: 1-800-843-5678.
▸ You are the victim. You did nothing wrong.
Shame is the weapon they use to keep you silent. But shame cannot survive in the light. Tell someone. Let the light in.
