Report missing children or child pornography to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) at 1-800-THE-LOST (843-5678) or through their Cybertipline.
If you suspect that someone is a victim of online grooming, you need to block contact between the victim and the potential predator immediately and alert proper authorities. Further information on how to file a report will be included below.
It’s also important to remember that it’s illegal to produce or share images of child abuse or pornography. If you see a video or photo that shows this, don’t comment, like, or share it. Instead, report it to the website it’s on or to the proper authorities.
