Information sent on behalf of South Yorkshire Police:
SYP have been alerted to the risk of potential grooming and abuse on the Avakin Life platform by members of our network. (Available on IOS & Android)
Online safeguarding experts have reviewed and tested the game, and discovered a number of potential risks to young people. The major risk is that users can easily access children and young people online via private and public chats.
Over 2 million people are using the platform with 500,000 using it every day.
We have shared this alert with staff, parents & carers so you can recognise the dangers without bringing this platform to the attention of the young people in your care.
