Has someone sent you an unwanted nude?
If someone has sent you an unwanted nude image or video of themselves that you didn’t ask for, talk to someone you trust and remember you can report the content(external link) or block it(external link).
If someone sends you nudes that you haven’t agreed to (‘unsolicited nudes’) then this could be considered harassment, which is illegal. Read about unsolicited nudes on the Netsafe website:
