NCMEC Financial Sextortion Trend Register

PROBLEM: The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) financial-sextortion reports more than doubled in one year — 10,731 in 2022 to 26,718 in 2023. By 2024, NCMEC had received more than 456,000 reports of online enticement. In 2025, NCMEC received more than 50,000 reports of financially motivated sextortion — about 137 a day, up from more than 36,000 in 2024. Since 2021, sextortion has been linked to the suicides of at least 36 people in the United States. The trend is documented and steep, but the numbers live in separate annual releases — with no standing register tracking the trend year over year.

SOLUTION: A financial-sextortion trend register: every year's NCMEC and IC3 counts logged with the reporting channel, the victim age band, and the linked harms — so a doubling is visible as a doubling, not as a headline.

EVIDENCE BASIS: DOCUMENTED — NCMEC figures via AFOSI (osi.af.mil): 10,731 (2022); 26,718 (2023); 456,000+ online enticement reports by 2024; 36+ suicides linked since 2021. NCMEC 2025 figure (50,000+; ~137/day; up from 36,000+ in 2024) via the FBI/NCAA PSA summary (Bitdefender, Aug 12, 2026). Sources: AFOSI; NCMEC; FBI.
