Australian authorities have issued a warning over a rise in the number of children being coerced into producing sexual and violent content online.

The Australian Federal Police (AFP) on Friday cautioned parents and guardians over an online trend emerging in Australia involving young victims who are being coerced over the internet to produce extreme content, news agency reported.

The AFP said that sadistic sextortion is a growing type of internet crime where online communities target children as young as 12 and pressure them to self-produce an image or video of an explicit sexual or violent act to gain acceptance into the community.

Once the image or video is produced and sent to an offender, the recipient will then send the content to other members of the community who will extort the victim by threatening to share the explicit material with their friends or family unless more extreme content is produced.
