By FOX 5 Atlanta Digital Team Published September 22, 2022 4:11PM article John Fordham (Cobb County Sheriff's Office) COBB COUNTY, Ga. - Investigators say 41-year-old Cobb County man was arrested for sharing graphic sexual images of children with animals. John Fordham was charged with bestiality, sexual exploitation of a child, and distribution of child pornography. According to a warrant, the investigators came across the Snapchat account in January. The email and phone number associated with that account led investigators to Fordham. The warrant states the images shared on the account depicted underage girls engaged in sexual acts with dogs. During a search of his Marietta Crossing apartment, investigators say they found those images on his hard drive. The warrant also states there were at least four videos found on a flash drive showing Fordham engaging in sexual activity with a dog. Fordham was booked into the Cobb County Adult Detention Center.

Our son was away at university when a letter arrived at our home, addressed to him, from Nationwide. It revealed that he had taken out a loan for £10,000 and that he was two months in arrears.

The loan was paid to his Santander current account, from which he then sent money to the fraudster’s account. What can we do? Sam Richardson, Which?‘s deputy Money editor, says: I’m very sorry to hear this. It’s a reminder of the devastating impact that fraud can have on both the victim and their family. It is also a stark reminder that, due to the increasingly sophisticated and evolving tactics of fraudsters, any of us can be at risk. Scams can begin in unlikely places: your son was first approached on social media app Snapchat, by a fraudster claiming your son could make money through a bitcoin trading scheme.At this point you’d expect the fraudster to ask for money – but what they were interested in were details, specifically the personal details they would need to apply for the £10,000 loan in your son’s name.…

Social media has its pros and cons. It allows us to stay connected with our friends and family in a fun manner. It allows us to make new friends with similar interests. It helps keep us informed and lets us share issues that are important to us with others. There is a dark side to social media as well. It makes it easy to compare ourselves with others and become either depressed or jealous, and it is easy to spread misinformation on social media. Filters and editing make it simple to fake on social media.  A new social media platform, BeReal, is working to change some of the more negative aspects of the medium. As often happens in the tech world, Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat quickly worked to copy BeReal on their own platforms. Imitation is the highest form of flattery after all. Before we get into all that, let’s take a look at BeReal and its features. BeReal’s origins maybe what we all just wanted was an app to see photos of your friends 🤷‍♀️— BeReal.
