Two 12-year-olds in Florida were arrested for cyberbullying in connection with the death of a middle-school student who police say hanged herself two weeks ago.
The circumstances around the death of 12-year-old Gabriella Green on Jan. 10 led to the arrests of the two Surfside Middle School students, Panama City Beach officials said in a news release Monday.
Police did not release the names of the two children who were arrested because they are minors.
Two 12-year-olds in Florida were arrested for cyberbullying in connection with the death of a middle-school student who police say hanged herself two weeks ago.
The circumstances around the death of 12-year-old Gabriella Green on Jan. 10 led to the arrests of the two Surfside Middle School students, Panama City Beach officials said in a news release Monday.
Police did not release the names of the two children who were arrested because they are minors.
Investigators were made aware of the potential cyberbullying against the girl while looking into the death, which led them to examine several cellphones and social media accounts, the news release said.
They interviewed two suspects with their parents' permission, and say both confessed to cyberbullying.
A police report states that one of the suspects told an investigator that she had started rumors about Green in person, and online.
(He) responded by saying something to the effect of, 'If you're going to do it, just do it,' and ended the call," police wrote. "He immediately regretted that statement, and began calling and text-messaging her, but did not receive a response."
Green's cousin, Chad Baker, told police she hanged herself with a dog leash in her closet, the police report said.
Police said the suspects did not notify any adult or authority about Green's state of mind. The two children arrested also acknowledged that their conduct was directed at Green "knowing that said conduct would result in emotional distress."
Even so, police said the investigation did not reveal that the cyberbullying caused the girl's death, just that it was happening in the days and weeks leading up to it.
School officials said they are making counselors available at Surfside for students, faculty and staff.
"We continue to mourn the loss of Gabbie and our hearts go out to her family, her friends and to everyone at Surfside Middle School," Superintendent William Husfelt said in a statement. "This is an absolutely tragic situation."
Police said that during the investigation, they discovered several middle-school children with unrestricted and unmonitored access to social media apps, and said the department will hold a training in the coming weeks for parents about how to manage this access.
Nationally, about 1-in-3 children say they are cyberbullied, and about 12 percent say they have bullied others online, according to Sameer Hinduja, a criminology professor at Florida Atlantic University and co-director of the Cyberbullying Research Center.
He said his most recent study of more than 5,000 children ages 12-17 in the U.S. shows that real-world bullying is still vastly more common than online bullying, and that fewer than 1 percent of cyberbullying cases involve su***de.
"In many su***de cases the victims were also dealing with atypical stressors, like family issues at home, or they were clinically depressed," Hinduja said. "Many kids are bullied and don't take their lives."

ARTICLE TITLE: PANDEMIC ESCALATED TEEN CYBERBULLYING – ASIAN AMERICANS TARGETED MOST

Early in the COVID‐19 pandemic, there was a concern that cyberbullying incidents (online threats, mistreatment or harassment) would increase because children were spending more time online. Also, in the midst of a brewing firestorm, the politicization of the link between the COVID‐19 virus and its presumed origination led to a pointed rise in sinophobia (anti-Chinese sentiment) and a documented increase in harassment, bullying, and even personal and property victimization against Asian Americans.

Until now, no research has explored the extent to which cyberbullying experiences increased generally among youth in the United States during the pandemic, and especially whether Asian American youth were disproportionately targeted.

Researchers from Florida Atlantic University and the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire conducted a first-of-its-kind nationally-representative study of 13- to 17-year-old middle and high school students in public and private schools in the United States. They investigated if these children experienced more cyberbullying during the pandemic compared to prior years. They were especially interested in whether Asian American youth were targeted more.

For the study, researchers tracked experience over time with general cyberbullying, as well as cyberbullying based on race or color. In the 2021 survey, respondents were asked whether they had been cyberbullied more or less since the start of the COVID‐19 pandemic.

Results, published in the Journal of School Health , showed that prevalence of cyberbullying victimization in general increased since the beginning of the COVID‐19 pandemic. Specifically, about 17 percent of all youth said they were cyberbullied in 2016 and 2019, but that proportion rose to 23 percent in 2021.

Notably, Asian American youth experienced significantly more cyberbullying than their counterparts since the COVID‐19 pandemic began. In 2019, Asian American youth in the U.S. were the least likely to have experienced cyberbullying (fewer than 10 percent reported being targeted overall and only about 7 percent were targeted because of their race similar to white/Caucasian youth).

In 2021, however, 19 percent of Asian American youth said they had been cyberbullied, and approximately 1 in 4 (23.5 percent) indicated they were victimized online because of their race/color. Additionally, Asian American youth were the only racial group where the majority (59 percent) reported more cyberbullying since the start of the COVID‐19 pandemic.

“Race‐based bullying has been linked to traumatic stress, poorer mental health outcomes, and even neurobiological harm,” said Sameer Hinduja, Ph.D., co-author, professor, FAU School of Criminology and Criminal Justice within the College of Social Work and Criminal Justice, co-director of the Cyberbullying Research Center, and a faculty associate at the Berkman Klein Center at Harvard University. “COVID‐19 racism against Asian Americans is associated with lower psychological well‐being as well as problematic internalizing and externalizing behaviors. In fact, some experts say that this population may be more susceptible to internalizing harm stemming from online victimization because of cultural stigmas among Asian Americans about help‐seeking and mental health needs.”

As more adolescents continue to spend more time online, cyberbullying victimization may increase across all racial groups. In the current politicized environment, Asian Americans may continue to be targeted because of their race.

“COVID-19 will likely not go away anytime soon,” said Hinduja. “We hope findings from our study will further spotlight the reality of cyberbullying experiences among Asian American youth in a way that compels additional actions in school policies, pedagogy, state and federal laws, messaging campaigns, and other program implementations so that these youth are more meaningfully supported.”

ARTICLE TITLE: Cyberbullying on the rise, UNESCO warns

MANILA, Philippines — Cyberbullying is on the rise, the United Nations education agency warned, attributing this to the COVID-19 pandemic as more students are “living, learning and socializing online.”
According to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), bullying affects one in every three students at least once a month, and one in 10 is a victim of cyberbullying.
While bullying is most often carried out by children’s peers, UNESCO said in some cases teachers and other school staff are believed to be responsible. The agency noted that corporal punishment is still permitted in schools in 67 countries.

Physical bullying is the most frequent type of bullying in many regions – with the exception of North America and Europe, where psychological bullying is most common.

Sexual bullying – including hostile sexual jokes, comments or gestures – is the second most common form of harassment at school in many regions.

Although school violence and bullying affect male and female students, physical bullying is more common among boys.
A person’s physical appearance is the most common cause of bullying, students reported, followed by their race, nationality or skin color.
Psychological abuse is more common among girls, UNESCO said, after identifying “isolating, rejecting, ignoring, insults, spreading rumors, making up lies, name-calling, ridicule, humiliation and threats” as typical treatment.
The consequences of bullying can have devastating consequences on academic achievement, school dropout, and physical and mental health, the agency said.
It defined bullying as aggressive behavior that involves unwanted, negative actions repeated over time, and an imbalance of power or strength between the perpetrators and the victims.
“Children who are frequently bullied are nearly three times more likely to feel like an outsider at school and more than twice as likely to miss school as those who are not frequently bullied,” UNESCO said. “They have worse educational outcomes than their peers and are also more likely to leave formal education after finishing secondary school.”

Cybercrime is on the rise as hackers continue to steal data, disrupt business and cause harm online. The result is billions of dollars in losses: The total annual loss in the US from cybercrime reached $4.2 billion in 2020, according to data released Tuesday from StockApp.com. That amounts to a 55% increase over the last two years.
Of that total, $1.8 billion, or 42%, came from business email compromises. The most common cybercrimes include phishing, nonpayment scams and extortion, according to the data.
Last year, multiple security breaches resulted in the compromise of millions of people's data. MGM Resorts reported 10.7 million guests' data stolen, Marriott saw 5.2 million customer accounts affected and the Solar Winds hack breached thousands of organizations including federal agencies.
Meanwhile, a Gallup poll published on March 22 found that Americans view cyberterrorism as the top threat facing the country, surpassing nuclear weapons developed by North Korea and Iran.

ARTICLE TITLE: Elder fraud is real. Tell your parents, grandparents and friends about these scams
AUTHOR: Marc Saltzman

Kids, it’s time to have “the talk” with your parents and grandparents.
Cybercrime cost Americans over 50 nearly $3 billion last year, a whopping 62% increase from 2020, according to the FBI’s 2021 Elder Fraud Report.
In fact, the number of victims could be much higher, as seniors are also less likely to report fraud, says the FBI. This is supported by figures from the FTC, which show that while 44% of younger people in their 20's reported losing money to fraud, only 20% of those in their 70's did the same.
The risks are wide-ranging, from fraudulent phone calls to phishing attempts via email, texts to social media messages, or shopping scams designed to dupe seniors out of their savings.
Rise in attacks, plus seniors pay out more
The pandemic played a role here, too, believes Michael Jabbara, Visa’s vice president and global head of fraud services.
“It’s no surprise we’ve seen a massive shift over the years towards digital transactions, but with this shift there’s also an increase focus from fraudsters,” says Jabbara. “This is especially true for elder individuals who may be a target because of a lack of technical sophistication and because they don’t always report these crimes to authorities.”
Jabbara says “grandparent scams” are still a popular attack method.
“This is where a fraudster spoofs a relative’s phone number and sends a message asking for money due to a medical emergency or text books, or whatever the case may be,” he said
Jabbara says Visa has invested more than $9 billion in anti-fraud measures over the over the last five years, including the use of artificial intelligence and advanced data analytics, “to ensure we’re keeping our network safe and secure across the globe.”
“Fraudsters are able to glean those personal details the grandparent posted pictures on Facebook or Instagram, allowing them to craft a very believable message,” Jabbara said. “Or in other cases, a family member’s account is hacked and a fraudster gets access to their email, they’ll target an elder family member with a similar plea for money or help. They play on their emotions.”
Seniors are a lucrative target
Seniors also pay out more. Disturbing data published by cybersecurity company Comparitech shows that while the average loss from those in their 'was $324, it jumps to $426 for victims in their 60's, $635 among 70-somethings, and a staggering median loss of $1,300 among those in their 80's.
Daniel Markuson, digital privacy expert with NordVPN, a leading Virtual Private Network (VPN) provider, see below, says its recent survey found that 84% of Americans have experienced a form of “social engineering,” where fraudsters attempt to fool you into divulging confidential or personal information.
“Phishing scams are one of the most common tactics among cybercriminals, designed to trick people into clicking on links that download malicious files often containing a virus,” explains Markuson. “So, one of the main tips we have for seniors is to be cautious and question everything they receive from unknown senders.”
Markus says often there are grammar mistakes in the email you received, a sense of urgency to confirm your details, or a strange-looking email domain.
What should we do about senior fraud?
When it comes to protecting our loved ones, letting them know about these risk plays a big role.
Jabbara says one of the best practices to fight back is to have a “tech check-in” with aging relatives, to go over these assorted tips.
Share with care: Limit how much personal information you share online. Set your social media profiles to private. If someone asks to connect with you on social media, only accept their request if you know them.
Be wary of “emergencies”: Your family or friends can easily be hacked to send out emails or text messages claiming to be urgently in need of cash or gift cards, scamming you out of money or gift cards.
When in doubt, just ask: If you really think it could be your daughter or grandson reaching out, don’t confirm by replying to the message you received. Instead, reach out in another fashion, such as calling them. Chances are, it’s fake. Block and report the fraudulent message.
Lock your devices: Use a passcode or fingerprint to lock your phone or tablet. If you have a computer, use a strong password that’s at least 12 characters long.
Shop safer: Always use a secure Internet connection when making a purchase. Reputable websites use technologies such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer) that encrypt data during transmission. You will see a little padlock icon in your browser(and usually “https” at the front of your address bar to confirm it’s a secure connection. Only shop on sites that take secure payment methods, such as credit cards.
Enable multifactor authentication: When it comes to logging into your online accounts, add a second layer of defense by enabling multifactor authentication, sometimes referred to as “two-factor authentication.” This means you not only need a password or passcode (or biometrics logon, like a fingerprint of facial scan) to confirm it’s you, but also a one-time code you’ll receive on your mobile phone to type in.
Install good cybersecurity software: Just as you wouldn't leave the front door to your home unlocked, you shouldn't let your tech be vulnerable to attacks, whether it’s a virus or other malicious software, called “malware,” that sneaks onto your device or caused by being tricked into giving out sensitive information.
Make sure you have the right cybersecurity tools to prevent fraud
Good antimalware that’s updated often can identify, quarantine, delete and report any suspicious activity coming into your computer or flag sensitive info going out.
“Seniors have more important things to do than worry about than being protected online,” says Gagan Singh, executive vice president and chief product an revenue officer for cybersecurity company McAfee.
A just-announced tool called McAfee+, from $49.99/first year, then $139.99/year after that, was created to make it easy for everyone to confidently live life online no matter how much or little they know about technology and online threats including identity theft.
“Our new product lineup includes tools that help people prevent identity theft and credit fraud, including credit monitoring, credit lock, removing their personal data online, identity monitoring, and website safety notifications,” says Singh.
Avoid Wi-Fi hotspots
Resist free wireless Internet at, say, a coffee shop or in an airport. It’s best to wait until you’re on a secured Internet connection at home, or use your smartphone as a personal hotspot, which is safer than public Wi-Fi. If you must use a hotspot, never conduct any financial transactions – like online banking, trading or shopping – as you never know if your information is being tracked and logged.
Use a VPN
A VPN conceals your online identity by using encryption technology, therefore what you do and where you go online cannot be seen by your service provider, the government, search engine, browser company, social media sites, advertisers and malicious types.

Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, September 6) — Mobile network providers Globe Telecom and Smart Communications said they have been spending billions of pesos to beef up their infrastructure against cybercrimes as they continue to work with authorities to stomp out the surge of text scams in the country.
Ayala-led Globe said in a statement on Tuesday that it has spent $20 million or roughly ₱1.1 billion to date to intensify the group's capabilities in detecting and blocking scam messages from international and local sources, with more than 100 people manning its 24/7 security operations center.
For the first seven months of 2022, Globe said it already blocked 784 million scam and spam messages, deactivated 14,058 scam-linked SIMs, and blacklisted 8,973 others.
The group's mobile wallet, GCash, also blocked 900,000 fraudulent accounts from January 2021 to March this year.
PLDT's wireless arm Smart said it shelled out nearly ₱3 billion last year to protect its subscribers from online criminal activities.
Smart said it blocked over 11 billion attempts to open links associated with spam messages from January to August 2022.
Angel Redoble, chief information security officer of PLDT and Smart, also assured the public that the telco's network was not breached.
"There's no recent cybersecurity incident that may have allowed criminals to breach our infrastructure and steal customer data to be targeted in their fraudulent activities," Redoble said.

Both Globe and Smart said they have been working with the National Telecommunications Commission, the National Privacy Commission, the Philippine National Police, and the National Bureau of Investigation.

Anton Bonifacio, Globe's chief information security officer, also called on all stakeholders to join the fight against scammers.
"At a time of aggressive cybercriminal activity amid growing digitalization, Globe asserts that the public, government and industry players, including telcos, are all victims of these illegal acts. It is, thus, a shared fight among all of us to beat our common enemy, which is cybercrime," Bonifacio said.

ARTICLE TITLE: E-sabong crackdown nets 8 in Cebu City
AUTHOR: Alfred P. Dalizon

AN ongoing crackdown against “guerrilla” e-sabong (online cockfighting betting) operations in Central Visayas on Monday evening led to the arrest of eight persons involved in illegal gambling in Cebu City, a report to Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief, General Rodolfo S. Azurin Jr. said Tuesday.

The eight suspects were caught in the act of playing the prohibited game inside a house in Barangay Ermita, Cebu City, said Police Regional Office 7 (PRO 7) Director Brig. Gen. Roderick Augustus B. Alba.

Recovered during the operation conducted by members of the Cebu City Police Station 5 led by Maj. Kenneth Paul Albotra were P2,400 in cash bets and a computer set being used to watch “sabong” live streamed via the Internet.

The eight were taken to the local police station for filing of charges for violation of Presidential Decree (PD) 1602 or the anti-illegal gambling law in relation to Republic Act (RA) 10175 or the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, said Alba, who has tapped the help of the community, local government units (LGUs) and the Church in reporting the presence of underground e-sabong operations in the region.

Alba said he had ordered a massive crackdown against underground e-sabong and other illegal gambling activities in Central Visayas amid a directive from the PNP chief.

“We shall continue our massive campaign against e-sabong and all forms of illegal gambling. I have directed all our units to intensify their intelligence gathering on e-sabong operations and to immediately conduct anti-illegal gambling operations,” the official said.

Alba said he had ordered “intelligence-driven” operations to determine if cockpit arenas in the region are being utilized for illegal activity.

As ordered by the PRO 7 director, all concerned police units have been instructed to inspect these establishments to prevent e-sabong activities regularly.

He said that the non-existence of e-sabong activities in the region will be supported by videos/pictures taken by concerned police units. He also instructed his men to fully coordinate with the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) headed by Brig. Gen. Ronald O. Lee and the Anti-Cybercrime Group (ACG) headed by Brig. Gen. Joel B. Doria their operations, particularly in monitoring links/sites being utilized by operators of the underground e-sabong operations.

On Monday, Azurin ordered a crackdown on all “guerrilla e-sabong operations,” which are believed to have sprouted in some parts of the country, particularly in the Visayas region amid the termination of all online cockfighting operations in the country last May amid its social cost to Filipinos.

The top cop ordered all 17 police regional and provincial offices, the PNP Directorate for Intelligence, the PNP-CIDG, and the Intelligence Group (IG) headed by Brig. Gen. Andrew D. Cayad to identify the operators of these clandestine online sabong operations and see to it that they will be arrested and charged in court.

Specifically, Azurin ordered an intensified campaign against guerrilla e-sabong operations in Central Visayas and other nearby regions and ordered concerned police commanders to stop the illegal activity within one week.

The PNP chief, Journal Group sources said, has warned that he will order the administrative relief of regional and provincial CIDG and IG chiefs and city and provincial intelligence chiefs if they “fail” to do their job.

Journal Group sources said that a “politician” is believed to be involved in guerrilla e-sabong operations in the Visayas region, although they refused to identify him at the moment.

Azurin said he had ordered the crackdown on illegal e-sabong operations amid complaints that “the lives of countless Filipinos have gone astray” after they got addicted to the online cockfighting games.

“Mga biktima nito, even those working abroad ay nalululong sa online sabong na ito. We even have recorded cases abroad, apparently syndicated operations ito,” he said.

The PNP chief said they have monitored some personalities behind the illegal games and thus have asked the CIDG to go after them.

“Kailangan talaga na mapatigil ang mga illegal online games na ito at afftected talaga lalo na yung mga mahihirap. Parang walang mga konsensiya ang mga nagpapaaandar nito kaya dapat talagang mapatigil na ang kanilang illegal activities, otherwise magiging source ng crime ito dahil magkakakautang-utang ang mga biktima,” the official said.

However, Azurin called on the full support of the public in their effort to stop the illegal activity. “Mas madali sanang mapapatigil ang mga ito kung sasabihin sa amin ng mga tao kung saan sila nag-o-operate. Thus we are calling for the participation of everybody, including the media here,” he said.

The Marcos administration previously said that it is “not keen” on tapping e-sabong for revenues and is even willing to let go of it “if it will compromise the value of the Filipino family.”

Shortly before he left Malacañang Palace last May, then President Rodrigo R. Duterte ordered the termination of e-sabong operations in the country following a recommendation from then Department of the Interior and Local Government Secretary Eduardo M. Año whom he tasked to do a “survey” on the social costs of online cockfighting.

Duterte’s sudden decision to stop online cockfighting operations is believed to have prompted operators of the illegal games and their other workers to go “underground” and transfer from one place to another.

Officials said other operators of the e-games and their employees were known to have operated illegally after Duterte’s directive to earn money for their families.

The former Duterte administration refused to suspend e-sabong because of the revenues it generated for the government, particularly during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. or PAGCOR earlier estimated the revenues from online cockfighting averaged P400 million monthly last year and P640 million a month since January 2022.

“E-sabong” gained popularity during the pandemic as Filipino gamblers only needed to place bets using their mobile phones. However, the disappearance of at least 34 people allegedly linked to online cockfighting sparked a Senate investigation and prompted calls.

ARTICLE TITLE: Some U.S. travel websites knocked offline after Russian hacker group calls for attack
AUTHOR: Kevin Collier
YEAR CREATED: Oct. 10, 2022,

At least 13 U.S. air travel websites, including those for Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport — two of the busiest airports in the country — were inaccessible Monday morning after a Russian hacktivist group named them as targets for cyberattacks.
There is no indication that any airport operations were affected, and the type of cyberattack the hackers claimed to use doesn’t do any lasting damage. But it was a sign of how an increasingly effective pro-Russia group, Killnet, can cause mischief for U.S. websites. Last week, Killnet targeted the websites of several U.S. states, successfully knocking Colorado.gov offline for more than a day and briefly interrupting Kentucky.gov.
Killnet specializes in Distributed Denial of Service attacks, or DDoS attacks, which overwhelm a website with internet traffic. While DDoS attacks are generally considered little more than a nuisance, they can knock websites offline for hours or even days.
Killnet frequently posts lists of targeted websites on its Telegram channel, encouraging fellow Russia supporters with entry-level hacker skills to join it in trying to disrupt them. On Monday morning, it posted a list of websites for 49 airports and other air travel sites, most of them in the U.S., as its latest targets.
A spokesperson for Los Angeles International Airport said in an email: "Early this morning, the FlyLAX.com website was partially disrupted," but that it didn't affect flights.
"The service interruption was limited to portions of the public facing FlyLAX.com website only. No internal airport systems were compromised and there were no operational disruptions," the spokesperson said.
A spokesperson for the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency, the federal government’s main cybersecurity agency, said that "CISA is aware of reports of DDoS attacks targeting multiple U.S. airport websites."
"We are coordinating with potentially impacted entities and offering assistance as needed," the spokesperson said.
The U.S. Department of Transportation declined to comment. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport didn’t respond to requests for comment.
An NBC News survey of the 49 websites posted on the Killnet Telegram channel found that the websites for many airports did not load properly, including Atlanta International; Montgomery, Alabama; Los Angeles International; Long Beach, California; Delaware Coastal; Southwest Florida International; Central Illinois Regional; Indianapolis International; Des Moines International; Jackson Municipal in Mississippi; and St. Louis Lambert International.
Some of Killnet’s targets indicated a lack of understanding of U.S. airports. It listed the city of Chicago’s general air travel website, flychicago.com, which was inaccessible Monday, but not that of its major airports, like O’Hare International or Midway International. Similarly, it targeted Hawaii’s state website for air travel, which was also inaccessible, but not Honolulu International.
