I don't know if this is area specific, but recently I've seen a number of posts from my town and others in the area where people are taking photos of people (always of a certain demographic) and uploading them to the local Facebook group, claiming they've taken photos of children.

There's no denying that this happens, but if Facebook groups (lol) are anything to go by, it seems to be an epidemic, as it's now almost a daily occurrence.

Has anyone else noticed this going on where they live?
 
it's almost certainly either completely innocent "they've taken pictures of my children" when the person was likely taking a picture of something else or even their own children (or even just using the phone without the camera or doing a video call), in many instances, if not just made up (there are people that love to create drama, and "think of the children" is a great way to do that).

There is a lot of paranoia and facebook/myspace/that stupid american neighbourhood app all encourage it.

As above I see stuff like this on my local Facebook groups where more often than not it is paranoia, misunderstanding, deliberate smear campaigns and/or something which seems to happen a lot toxic relationship breakups where nothing seems to be off limits, etc. etc.

That's what I think of a lot of it, in fact I've followed up on a few posts and it's come to light that they've been taking photos or recording their own children or family members.

It's disgusting that they can just throw out accusations like that, with pictures of people who have done nothing wrong, putting them at risk of vigilante attacks by scum in the area.
 
I was at a wedding a few years back, and the bloke whipped out his camera to take a photo of his kids playing with my mate’s daughter.

His wife back handed him and said “you should ask!”..
Then she asked me, if it was ok…

I just said she’s not my daughter…. Pue.. would it be ok for this man to take a photo with you in it?
 
Possibly racists who wouldn't do a thing if it were some white man walking a dog or whatever but happens to take photos of the park as he passes through.


Theres taking photos of children and then there's taking a photo that a child happens to be in.

maybe these people come from countries that don't do playground and parks? could be as innocent as showing people who it's like over here.

and maybe they scarper because they don't speak good English and aren't capable of defending their actions.


most the parks around here are full of those types anyway so I doubt it happens in my locality

Yeh, I imagine the vast majority is this.
 
There was a mod on Facebook who was trying to remove full on illegal material posted in secret groups. But Facebook kept stopping him. In the end he resigned.

P.S.

I found the video interview;

I actually spotted some emails earlier saying an email had been added to my account, my password has been changed, my email has been removed from the account about a week ago.

I've not actually posted or used the thing for several years (haven't missed having social media), I should have deleted it sooner though, slightly annoyed at the thought of somebody posing as me for a scam or whatever it is they do.

I've tried the recover steps but it seems rubbish, it just loops back round to asking me to log in again in some form. The Mrs says I'm not on her list to view anymore so hopefully the thing was just reported and blocked.
