Abstract
When many people think about online scams, they think about financial scams targeted at older people, or at adults in general. However, children are also the targets of deceptive behaviour online. Here, Gazal Shekhawat and Didem Özkul of the Digital Futures for Children centre review the evidence around some of the ways that children might be manipulated or deceived in the online world.
