Some scary stats.

I did a little digging today to check out how much of a growth we’ve had in people reporting sextortion scammers.  Here’s what I came up with.  Our first report came in around 3 years ago.  The first year, we had around 100 forms filled in with scammer details.  The second year that number shot up to 1500.  This past year we had around 4000 reports.  We can’t be sure how much of that increase came from rasied awareness and how much came from the scam being used more often.  Either way, as the title says, these are some scary stats.
