Trafficking Linked to Online Contact

What’s the risk?

Some online relationships or job offers—especially those promising travel or work abroad—can be linked to trafficking. Young people may be lured with promises of a better life, education, or work, only to face harm or loss of freedom.

How to talk about it

Have calm conversations about travel, migration, and work opportunities. Encourage your child to ask questions like: Who arranged this? Who knows about it? Is it legal? Make it clear that any plan involving travel or work should always involve trusted adults and official channels.
