Sometimes, people who seem safe become unsafe, and they do things or ask you to do things that make you uncomfortable. Police and other adults often call people who do these things <em>predators</em> because they prey on others— but to you, they may just feel like friends or people you know online. They may be friendly, approachable and loving — and they may be someone you already know and trust.</p><p>Online predators or unsafe people can be on chat apps, online games and the social media platforms where you spend your time. These people sometimes use fake profiles and pretend to be someone your age to gain your trust. They may start by asking you to chat with them as a friend or romantic partner, then ask you where you live or where you go to school. They may even ask for your phone number. You might trust them and feel like they wouldn’t ask you to do something that could be dangerous or harmful.</p><p>Engaging with you online and getting you to trust them is called <a href="/know2protect/key-definitions#onlinegrooming" target="_blank">grooming</a>. Grooming is the act of getting a kid or teen to feel more comfortable — comfortable enough to do things they wouldn't ordinarily do. Sometimes grooming is as simple as giving you compliments and positive attention. Other times, it takes the form of money, gifts, e-gift cards or in-game credits.</p><p>Days, weeks or months might go by before these people begin having inappropriate, sexual conversations with you — but in some cases, it happens in just one sitting. Over time, the conversations can get more and more graphic, and the person may ask you to send inappropriate photos or videos or ask you to meet them in person. They might also threaten or blackmail you by telling you that if you don’t give them more photos, money or online gift cards, they’ll share your photos or videos with other people. This is called <a href="/know2protect/key-definitions#sextortion" target="_blank">sextortion</a>. You can view an interactive video from the National Center of Missing and Exploited Children called “<a href="https://urldefense.us/v3/__https:/noescaperoom.org/__;!!BClRuOV5cvtbuNI!AfqwjgzLNhzxF7Ne8CAFWDvS0Ha_y5GT8Z9WPFvBulbiKfYk6pkNvNbutz8bdaeR7YgGS-F7Tgblaklaewu6Uhnigw$">No Escape Room</a>” that walks parents and children through the interactions that can lead to online sextortion.</p><p>These interactions might make you feel uncomfortable, anxious or stressed. The feelings might show up physically through things like:</p><ul><li>Decreased appetite or other changes in eating habits.</li><li>Headaches.</li><li>New or recurrent bedwetting.</li><li>Nightmares.</li><li>Sleep disturbances.</li><li>Upset stomach or stomach pain.</li><li>Other physical symptoms with no physical illness.</li></ul><p>But there are ways you can protect yourself.</p><h2>Meet the iGuardians!</h2><p>A savvy duo of Homeland Security Investigations special agents, their trusty canine sidekick Captain Canine Mojo, a student named Penny and Mr. Emmett the teacher have joined forces to form our team of iGuardians.
