Rape video on Facebook

Please help. I'm not the person to take on this fight. But. I am sickened and horrified. I was looking through my 14 year old daughter's Facebook newsfeed with her - laughing at the funny posts, when I saw a video posted on her page - the still was explicit and for all the world looked like a women being raped.When I saw it, I panicked and removed the video from the newsfeed. The title of the the the film was something along the lines of 'they forced her and 5 hours later she was dead'. I don't know if this video is actually real or not. But it sure as hell looked like it. Who in god's name would "like" this? Do they not realise that watching this perpetuates the crime? I couldn't bring myself to watch the video - the still was too disturbing. I don't know if I've posted in the right section - but I would dearly love for someone to help make children understand that the images they view involve real people and can affect real lives. The children who posted this are 14 - I think (I hope) that they posted in a disapproving tone - but they need to understand that perpetuating the images perpetuates the abuse.

It's a virus.

It's not an actual video, I will try to find the link.

Like rhonda said it's a virus. The shocking title is to make people click it and spread the virus.

This came up on my newsfeed a couple of weeks ago. You have to share to be able to see the "video"

I googled it and apparently it's a virus of some sort.

But 2 people I know shared it Hmm

I reported it to facebook and they removed it, and I deleted the 2 who shared it..I don't want to know people who actually wanted to see this Angry

I can't find the page telling you about it, I saw it and googled the exact name of the video and it cam straight up as a scam.

mrspresley that's the whole point, they didn't share it on purpose. As soon as you click on it and try to view it it posts to your page. No-one will have shared it.

I agree, it's a virus they won't have actually shared it, the virus must've hacked their account

This one is as old as Facebook itself. You click on it, it automatically shares.
It does tell you that the person who shared it must have clicked on it though. I have a lot of blokes on my timeline who click on the ones promising naked young women.
Gullible fools the lot of em.

Oh thank goodness - I was looking at my daughters friends in a whole other light. I thought they had posted the video

No Nimble, though her friends must have clicked on it so they did wan't to watch it.

I had a school friend who was always clicking on them, he never twigged I don't think that he wasn't getting his promised video but that all his friends could see he was regularly attempting to watch 'naked teens do shocking things' and the like. I deleted him in the end, quite creepy really.

I saw that on my newsfeed as well and ignored it, I thought it couldn't possibly be real, glad to hear it's 'just' a virus.

Perhaps they should put account hacking viruses in lots of these type videos, bit of payback.
