Digital law expert sounds the alarm after children as young as 9 are exposed to porn on WhatsApp
Digital law expert Emma Sadleir is furious after receiving a disturbing account of nine-year-old children allegedly being shown pornography during a WhatsApp group call.
The Office of the Chief Justice (OCJ) has expressed alarm following a recent impersonation scam targeting Acting Constitutional Court Justice Tembeka Ngcukaitobi. According to the OCJ, an individual sent WhatsApp messages purportedly from Justice Ngcukaitobi, using a profile picture and mobile number that resembled his likeness.
The OCJ advised the public to be wary of such impersonators, as falsely representing a state of affairs knowing it to be untrue is fraud. The matter has been reported to relevant authorities for further investigation. Earlier this year, the OCJ issued a warning about fake social media accounts impersonating Chief Justice Mandisa Maya, emphasizing that impersonating a judicial officer is a criminal offence.
