A global study on the prevalence of sexual extortion among adults has found the issue is more widespread than initially thought.
14.5% of respondents reported being victims of sextortion, while 4.8% admitted to being perpetrators.
The most common type of perpetrator was a former or current partner, but men were more likely to report being victimised by a colleague or carer.
Perpetration was most common in South Korea , followed by Australia and the US .
Google hopes the research will help expand the understanding around the harms of image-based sexual abuse and support further investment in innovation to combat the issue.
“Sextortion: Prevalence and correlates in 10 countries” was published in Computers in Human Behavior (DOI: 10.101 /j.108298).
