Many kids are exposed to cyberbullying, identity theft, sexting, and threats, making them vulnerable to child predators pretending to be friends. In Online Predators, an Internet Insurgency, Jeffrey A. Lee teaches steps that don’t require advanced (or even any) technical knowledge.
— Abraham Valle, former task force investigator
