Resource Networks of Harm: A Victim-Centric Resource on the 764 Network
6 hours ago
Quote:The 764 network is a loosely connected, transnational set of online groups that engage in sextortion and the glorification of violence. The network, comprising a constantly shifting landscape of splinter groups and offshoots, coerces minor victims into producing Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM). They then use that CSAM as leverage to force victims to perform acts of violence, animal abuse or self-harm. 764 members also engage in extensive swatting, harassment and intimidation campaigns to silence their victims. Since 2021, at least 50 members of 764 (or members of affiliated groups) have been arrested for sextortion, possession of CSAM or violent attacks. This report seeks to provide knowledge and resources to those who may encounter victims of 764 abuse, including parents, teachers, coaches, religious leaders, Prevent Delivery Officers and others.
