Human trafficking is modern-day slavery. Traffickers use force, fraud, and coercion to control their victims.
Any minor engaged in commercial sex is a victim of human trafficking. Trafficking can occur in many
locations, including truck stops, restaurants, rest areas, brothels, strip clubs, private homes, etc. Truckers
are the eyes and the ears of our nation¡¯s highways. If you see a minor working any of those areas or suspect
pimp control, call the National Hotline and report your tip:
1-888-373-7888 (US)
1-800-222-TIPS (Canada)
For law enforcement to open an investigation on your tip, they need ¡°actionable information.¡± Specific tips
helpful when reporting to the hotline would include:
? Descriptions of cars (make, model, color, license plate number, etc.) and people (height, weight, hair
color, eye color, age, etc.)
? Take a picture if you can
? Specific times and dates (When did you see the event in question take place? What day was it?)
? Addresses and locations where suspicious activity took place
Trafficking Red Flags to Look for:
? Lack of knowledge of their community or whereabouts
? Not in control of own identification documents (ID/passport)
? Restricted or controlled communication--not allowed to speak for self
? Demeanor: fear, anxiety, depression, submissive, tense, nervous
Questions to Ask:
? Are you being paid?
? Are you being watched or followed?
? Are you free to leave? Come and go as you please?
? Are you physically or sexually abused? Are you or your family threatened? What is the nature of the
threats?
Report by Email: Report@
Warning: Please do not approach traffickers. Call the hotline, and they will call the FBI and local police
to deal with them and rescue the victims. Approaching traffickers is not only dangerous for you and
their victims but could lead to problems in the eventual prosecution of traffickers. Go to
for more information.
