\u201cThe relevant stakeholders indicated that men, women and also children can be trafficked for a large variety exploitation purposes such as labour, illegal adoption, prostitution and also harvesting of body parts and other reasons,\u201d said Sebone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sebone urged the public to be vigilant when applying for jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs the police, we urge the members of the community to be vigilant for false recruitment \u2013 verify that the company do exist and also avoid taking lifts from strangers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founder and director of Small Voice Human Trafficking<\/a> Jacqueline Fourie offered the following tips especially for teenagers to follow to be safe:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Do not post\/send\/share intimate photos or information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Remember: if you wouldn\u2019t say it or do it in public, don\u2019t post it online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Do not post photos you do not want a trafficker to see or where you are going\/time you are going away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Do not post personal details, including phone numbers, home address, and the name of your school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Do not accept every \u201cfriend\u201d request \u2013 try to only accept friends\u2019 requests from people you know in real life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Just because you know someone on the internet, does not mean that you actually know them \u2013 do not agree to meet them alone. If you do want to meet them, arrange to see them at a busy place (eg mall) and never alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Once posted, always posted: protect yourself on social networks. What you post online stays online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Tell someone if an individual online makes you feel uncomfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
