Abstract

Abstract Few studies have examined crime on Snapchat despite its popularity and growing accounts of victimization occurring on the application. This study addresses this gap in knowledge by conducting a rapid review of crime on Snapchat across 18 databases. The findings indicate this area is under-researched, with only 35 articles eligible for inclusion and five focusing solely on crime on Snapchat. Nevertheless, eleven types of crimes were identified as occurring on Snapchat, including: blackmail; the sharing of private, sexual material without consent; grooming/solicitation of minors; stalking; posting threatening, intimidating or harassing material; hate crime; sharing offensive, menacing or obscene content; obtaining illicit goods; identity theft; fraud; and hacking. The findings additionally revealed some patterns in offending and victimization that are also discussed.

识别Snapchat上冒犯和伤害行为的趋势和模式:快速回顾

尽管Snapchat很受欢迎，而且在该应用程序上发生的受害事件越来越多，但很少有研究调查Snapchat上的犯罪行为。这项研究通过在18个数据库中对Snapchat上的犯罪行为进行快速审查，解决了这一知识缺口。调查结果表明，这一领域的研究不足，只有35篇文章符合纳入条件，其中5篇只关注Snapchat上的犯罪行为。尽管如此，11种类型的犯罪被确定发生在Snapchat上，包括:勒索;未经同意分享私人的、与性有关的材料;引诱/引诱未成年人;跟踪;发布威胁、恐吓或骚扰材料;仇恨犯罪;分享令人反感、威胁或淫秽的内容;获取非法货物;身份盗窃;欺诈;和黑客。研究结果还揭示了一些犯罪和受害的模式，这些模式也被讨论了。
