If a child is being exploited online
Report it to NCMEC.
If someone is pressuring a child for images, threatening to share them, or trying to meet them, report it to the CyberTipline or call 1-800-843-5678 (1-800-THE-LOST). Take It Down can help remove images of minors from participating platforms.
