ParticipantHi there from me ACE.
I need help.
I need to nail some one on his web cam.
If I can only access his webcam without him knowing that would be great.Why I need to do this is because he is showing child porno live on his webcam.
I have his local info but all I need to do is grabb the images from his cam.
Can someone help me please.

MemberAce get the Cyber Angels involved! http://www.cyberangels.org/
There is noway to view a persons webcam on yahoo without them knowing. But you could get a ID that would be something he might allow to view it. I still feel you should get the people involved that handle this stuff. http://www.cyberangels.org/paed/index.htmlJune 12, 2003 at 3:17 am #61513Johnson
MemberSounds really fishy to me, sounds like something best handled by the authorities and also Yahoo!. Child porn is definetly one thing i wouldn’t joke around about, could get you into a lot of trouble, and for good reason too. If i even suspected someone had some child porn the first thing i would do is notify the proper authorities.

MemberQuote:quote:If i even suspected someone had some child porn the first thing i would do is notify the proper authorities.I would cut out the middle men (Yahoo! and cyber angels) and go straight to the police, who will be able to do something quicker. The police can get stuff sorted out quicker, all cyber angels do is assess a report then get the police involved, which can only slow things down.

Yeah, that would be great.
But as you can see from the many other posts in this forum explicitly stating that it’s not possible to view another’s cam without permisson, it won’t happen.
If you really want to “catch” him, make up a fake screen name and go undercover and buddy up to him.

Right. So then you’ll have these images on your hard drive. That’s a good idea because then when you send them to the police (or who ever) I’m sure you’ll be able to prove they came from his computer (good luck).
Look, if you’re really being sincere about this, go to the cyber angles AND yahoo.

ParticipantThanks you Guys for your Input.
You see what this guy wants is, you show me and I will show to you.
I will try to buddy up with him.
This is going to take time but if so I will do it.
I will keep you posted on the subject.
Cheers from me ACE

MemberIf i was you, i wouldn’t take matters into my own hands, this is something that needs to be handled by the authorities, i’m guessing the fbi, i can talk to my brother-in-law he works for the indiana state police, and see what he says, i know at his post they have a guy who’s job it is to go online and try to bust people doing anything illegal. If you have to show him child porn in order to see what he has, possibly this guy could be working for the fbi or some other law enforcement agency trying to bust you? You could really be getting yourself into some trouble here, just talking about child porn can get you into serious trouble. It wouldn’t matter what your intentions are. These people are trained to deal with problems like this, let them do their job, you probably are going to end up making things worse then they already are.

MemberI asked my friend in Washington D.C., who works in security field for the U.S. Government. He says this needs to be handled by Yahoo, which Yahoo could find out and notify the proper authorities in the suspect’s area. Yahoo has a software to trace IP addresses to the address the suspect is located.
Johnson is right in his last post. It’s best to be handled by the proper authroties without your help, all you could do is to tell which one you think is doing this.
June 12, 2003 at 9:07 pm #61514Johnson
MemberI agree with Brian here, i was thinkin the same thing after reading the other posts, logically if you goto yahoo, im sure they have dealt with similar problems b4, and they would know exactly who to contact, and im sure they could aid in any kinda of investigation. You could call the fbi or police, but best bet would prolly be to talk to yahoo first and see what they say. But if u contacted the police, im sure they would get ahold of another agency who specializes in this kinda crime and yahoo as well.

MemberJust recently while in a chat room I was alerted to the existance of a child porn site by another chatter who was not sure how/where to report it properly. I went directly to the FBI website and filled out a ‘report a tip’ form there. The following is a portion of the reply email ( not a form letter by the way… an ACTUAL ‘personal’ reply) I received directly from the FBI.
‘Go here to report any suspected of dealing with, posting of, or distribution of any forms of child pornography. http://www.cybertipline.com (This form is then reviewed by analysts and forwarded to law enforcement including the FBI, the US Customs Service, the US Postal Inspection, and state and local police agencies.) The CyberTipline allows individuals to file a report by submitting an online form. This form is then reviewed by analysts and forwarded to law enforcement including the FBI, the US Customs Service, the US Postal Inspection, and state and local police agencies. Innocent Images national child pornography task force, is located at Baltimore Division of the FBI. To read more about their ‘Innocent Images’ project, visit
http://www.fbi.gov/hq/cid/cac/innocent.htm ‘Yahoo! is not the place to report child porn. Once cybertipline receives a report they pass the info on to ALL who need it to start the ball rolling including the involvement of Yahoo! (if the circumstances warrant). You would not try to ‘play detective’ in catching anyone online who deals in child porn. In fact, doing so may simply foul up any attempts by the proper authorities in nailing such perverts. Also, I would not go directly to the local police especially if we are talking about any local police in the USA in that they do not always respond quickly enough. Add to that the simple fact that funds have currently been cut on most state levels, officers have been layed off across the entire country etc. and the responce is even slower than usual. FBI is federal. Federal levels currently have greater funding, more manpower and as always higher authority in comparison to local & state.
Ace111 needs to go to http://www.cybertipline.com fill the form there & be sure to include whatever ‘local info’ he has gathered on the individual as well as his Yahoo! ID etc.
It’s my 1st post here on this forum. Sorry about the double spacing. 😮 It’s been corrected.

Membergood job shear!
my two cents …if you should happen across a webcam on yahoo that is showing inappropriate materials….. click the REPORT ABUSE link…. it SHOULD… repeats SHOULD screen cap and attach to the info yahoo receives from you…
the report abuse links in messenger, chat 2, and on webcams are the only LEGAL / VERIFIABLE info yahoo can use to terminate accounts etc….

MemberHere’s the link to report abuse
June 17, 2003 at 6:26 am #61509Nhyrvana
Membermacro.
yep.. clarifying my previous post…..
but if they see it on cam or in chat…. click the link on the chat client…. the one in lower corner of screen, just above the send button . says REPORT abuse…..
it does more than just open the page….. that flags the info on the yahoo server.. going to the page on your own from any other link.. does not…..and needs to be done with in 10 min if i recall correctly…. that will get a review by an actual yahoo person and a warning from customer care if the abuse/violation is true/substantiated.. or even get offenders account closed.
been told that if you use a third party client to access yahoo chat ~ you can open messenger go to the room, and click the link…. and it will flag last 10 minutes of chat….. and attach to your report….
just a tip… -
