Momo Challenge
You may have heard about the Momo Challenge which targets children via What’s App and indirectly via social media and YouTube. Children are enticed to contact a user named Momo then they are instructed to perform a series of dangerous tasks which encourage self-harm and suicide. Messages are usually accompanied by frightening or gory pictures. If the tasks are not completed, graphic threats are then sent.
