4 Why is cyberbullying different?
It can reach a vast audience in a matter of seconds It has the potential to draw in large numbers of people It takes ‘repetition’ to a different level, with hurtful comments and images being shared multiple times It has the potential to impact at any time of day or night It can offer a degree of anonymity to the perpetrator There are very few children that have not been impacted in some way, either as the perpetrator or the victim It’s difficult to police and to punish There is often some form of evidence (e.g. screen shot, text message). Cyberbullying can take the shape of : Catfishing/Cyberstalking/ Dissing/ Flaming/fraping/Griefing/Harrassment/Masquerading/Outing/Roasting/Trolling stealing someone’s profile or setting up fake profiles to lure people into starting online relationships sending repeated and frequent messages that include real threats of physical harm sending or posting information that’s intended to damage someone’s reputation deliberately excluding someone from online conversations, games and activities sending angry, abusive online messages to intentionally provoke someone into starting an argument logging into someone else’s account, impersonating them or posting inappropriate content in their name abusing and angering people through online gaming targeting an individual or group with persistent and offensive messages which could develop into cyberstalking creating a fake identity or impersonating someone else online to harass an individual anonymously publicly sharing personal, private or embarrassing information, photos or videos about someone online ganging up on an individual online and sending offensive abuse until the victim is seen to ‘crack’ deliberately posting provocative and insulting messages about sensitive subjects or inflicting racism or misogyny on an individual

5 Selfies-The Naked Truth
Once it’s gone, it’s gone. Share a picture or video online or on your phone and someone else might send it further. You could lose control of it and who knows where it might end up? What if your mum, dad or teacher saw it? Bullies go for it. You've probably heard stories of teenagers who have been badly bullied because of naked pictures online, like the tragic case of Amanda Todd. It’s against the law! If you're under 18, it's illegal to take or share an ‘indecent’ picture of yourself, or to look at or share someone else's.. If it’s naked, a topless girl, contains genitals or sex acts including masturbation it will be 'indecent'! You could be blackmailed. Swapping naked pics with someone you’ve met online? If you send a picture you wouldn’t want other people to see then you could be in danger of being blackmailed. Will they keep your pic private? Even if you really trust them, it would only take a moment for them to share it tonight, tomorrow or next year… in that moment they could be in a silly mood, drunk or angry. They could just hit ‘send’ by accident.

6 Amanda Todd She said she was persuaded to expose her breasts to a stranger who then sent the photo to her school friends. 'I need someone' These images were then used to torment her on social media, she revealed. The teenager changed schools repeatedly but that did not stop the bullying and she was physically attacked by classmates. After a violent encounter with another girl, she wrote that she went home and drank bleach. "It killed me inside and I thought I actually was going to die," she said. The last card on the YouTube video reads: "I have nobody. I need someone. My name is Amanda Todd." Tributes from across the world are being paid to a 15-year-old girl from Canada who killed herself after being bullied online. A memorial for Amanda Todd was held overnight in British Columbia, five days after she was found dead. It comes five weeks after she uploaded a video to YouTube describing years of bullying that she said drove her to drugs and alcohol. In the nine-minute video she told her story with a set of handwritten notes. The recording, described as "haunting", showed the cheerleader going into detail about what happened to her.

7 Paedos, creeps and weirdos
A teenager in Canada has got herself into trouble with the police after spreading naked pictures of her boyfriend’s ex on Facebook. She found five pictures of the girl on her boyfriend’s phone and posted them online. The girl was convicted in court of child pornography offences because the photos were of a girl who was under 18-years-old. The girl’s lawyer argued that it shouldn’t have been seen as child pornography but as online bullying but the courts did not see it this way. The court said that anyone sending naked pictures or teenagers needed to be aware of the consequences. “Teens should be aware of what they send to each other and where it might end up” said the Crown Prosecutor. Although this was in Canada, British teens need to be aware that if they send naked images, even of themselves, they could be breaking the law and find themselves in trouble. If you’re worried about any images that you’ve shared or want more information about what the risks are with naked selfies, find out more This emphasises the fact that even if you trust the person you are sending the selfie to, it can still fall into the wrong hands.

8 Online Grooming Groomers may go to a social network used by young people and pretend to be one of them. They might attempt to gain trust by using fake profile pictures, pretending to have similar interests, offering gifts and saying nice things to you. Online groomers are not always strangers. In many situations they may already have met them through their family or social activities, and use the internet to build rapport with them. Sometimes children don’t realise they’ve been groomed, and think that the person is their boyfriend or girlfriend. Be aware of older people showing an interest in you, both online and in person. Gangs target vulnerable youths to be drug mules. County Lines is the latest emerging threat to young people. County Lines’ is a national issue involving the use of mobile phone ‘lines’ by groups to extend their drug dealing business into new locations outside of their home areas. This issue affects the majority of forces.

9 Met someone new? 5 signs they are not all they seem
It can be hard to spot when someone is using you. Here are some possible signs: 1.To get to know you they give you lots of attention. We all like attention and it’s nice to feel wanted. But if someone tries to get to know by giving you lots of attention, ask yourself – what do they really want? 2. They give you gifts, like phone credit, alcohol, drugs or jewellery. This can be exciting and make you feel good about someone but if they want sex in return they are trying to exploit you. 3. They try to isolate you from your friends or family. They will say that they are the only person you need. They might tell you that your friends or family won’t understand or you’ll be in trouble. Remember, the people who care about you will want to protect you. 4. They have mood swings. If someone flips between being ‘very nice’ and ‘very nasty’, you can feel like you need to do things to keep them happy. This can be a sign they are trying to control you. 5. They control you with promises and threats. Abusers use many tricks to control young people. They may make promises they can’t keep, ask them to keep secrets or threaten them. Some become violent.

10 Be savvy! Send This Instead
