In this episode of the Parent University Podcast, we sit down with Burke Mattlin and Scott Gallas of the Gilbert Police Department to discuss the alarming rise of sextortion—a cybercrime targeting young people. Sextortion involves the use of manipulation to coerce minors into sharing explicit content online and then threatening to expose the explicit content to extort money from the victims. Our guests explain how these predators operate, the psychological toll on victims, and the steps parents can take to protect their children. Tune in for expert advice on how to recognize the warning signs, initiate crucial conversations with your kids, and navigate the digital world safely.
