Greek cyber crimes unit traces pedophiles’ IP addresses

The cyber crimes unit of the Greek police has traced the IP addresses of unidentified individuals believed to have tricked a 12-year-old Greek girl into participating in sexually explicit videos, sources said on Monday.

The suspects, whose computers were traced to Pakistan and the Philippines, are alleged to have approached the girl via her Facebook profile, masquerading as scouts for a modeling agency and to have offered her work.

After she agreed, the fraudsters allegedly forced her to pose naked for videos, claiming that she was contractually obliged to do so.
