According to a U.S. Department of Justice study, of the estimated 24 million child Internet-users, one in five has received unwanted sexual solicitations, with teen girls being the primary target.

The goal of the campaign is to raise awareness about the prevalence of online sexual exploitation. The latest PSAs were launched in June 2005 and speak directly to teen girls to warn them of the dangers of forming "blind" relationships online. The PSAs ask teens to visit www.cybertipline.com to get tips on how to prevent, detect, and report suspicious online behavior. Please go to www.cybertipline.com for more information.
