***A PARENT MUST WATCH *** ~ The Dangers Of Social Media, a Child Predator Social Experiment by Coby Persin ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1



The YouTube Video that this article links to (again which can be accessed by clicking here), is an absolute MUST VIEW for any and all parents.  It will take 6:59 of your life but if you watch it then I guarantee that you will be absolutely shocked at what you learn.




YouTube "star" Coby Persin, aged 21, helped some New York area parents to teach their respective daughters (aged 12, 13 and 14) just how real the threat of pedophiles, rapists, and abductors truly is by creating a fake Facebook profile, posing as a teen himself and luring their respective young daughters into potentially deadly situations, and he accomplished his objective in all three (3) instances, merely by striking up conversations with 12, 13 and 14 y/o girls them on Facebook.  That's Coby pictured below...




Per Coby:  "I made a fake profile on Facebook posing as a 15-year-old boy.  With their parents' permission, I friend-requested three girls ages 14, 13, and 12."  And here is the fake Facebook profile that Coby created, posing as 15 y/o Jason Biazzo...




Coby asks:  "How easy is it for a pedophile to pick up an underage child using social media?"  And the answer is that Coby didn't have to work hard to set the groundwork for a first meeting with any of the three (3) teens, merely chatting with them online or via text for a few days before successfully arranging to meet up when their parents were out or asleep, either at their own homes or somewhere nearby. 




The first girl that Coby he puts to the test is named Mikayla, who proves very trusting, and quickly takes "Jason's" word for it that he is another local kid, though they have obviously never met before and have no friends in common.  After Coby he Mikayla a friend request the 13-year-old asks where she knows him from.  "I just moved from Florida to your town" he says with a smiley face emoji. Coby doesn't even have to specifically name her town for her to decide that he is safe.  He says that he is just looking to make new friends and the two continue to talk before arranging to meet in a park near Mikayla's house.







After waiting for her parents to leave the house so she won't have to tell them where she's going, Mikayla sneaks out and walks to the park.  When she gets there she sees Coby, a muscular man with facial hair (and clearly not 15 y/o Jason Biazzo) waiting. Coby calls out to Mikayla and she asks who he is before her father comes out from his hiding place, screaming "Mikayla, are you crazy?  Are you out of your mind?  He could have been a rapist. He could have been a pedophile. Why would you do this?"








Makayla, clearly shaken, quietly apologizes.  Coby points out that they've only been talking to each other for a few days, and for all she knew, he could have been anyone.
Makayla's dad says:  "Do you realize how scary this could have been?", and then he kisses her on the head and tells her that they "need to talk."




The next girl that Coby befriends online is 12-year-old Julianna.  When he asks her on Facebook if she wants to hang out, she says yes, but that it would have to be when her dad isn't around because she can't have boys over, so they make plans for "Jason" to come over when her dad is asleep.  






The night that "Jason" is set to visit Juliana, Coby and her father, John, discuss the young girl's behavior. John doubts that Julianna will open up when they come knocking, or at least he "prays she doesn't".  





The two men go together to the front of the house and Julianna, who barely comes up to Coby's chest, does in fact open the door, much to her dad’s fury.  "What's wrong with you?" her father angrily says, taking his daughter by the arms. She immediately begins crying and apologizing as he continues to lecture: "How can you do this? You're 12 years old! You could have been raped and murdered!  I already lost your mother!  What would I do if something happened to you?"  As Julianna continues to bawl, her father embraces her and says:  "I love you. Don't you ever do this again!"






Finally there's Jenna, age 14 and the oldest of the girls tested, who gets the scariest encounter of all.  Coby narrates saying that "Jenna thinks her parents are going out tonight for date night", as he sits with Jenna's mom and dad in a van.  Jenna has agreed to meet up with "Jason" and thinks his older brother will be driving them somewhere.  Her parents don't believe she will go through with it, until she does...





As soon as Coby pulls up (in an unmarked panel van) Jenna comes out of the house. She walks up to the passenger side window and when she's told that the guy that she sees driving (who is Coby) is Jason's brother she opens the door and climbs right into the van.  Her parents, who were hidden in the back of the van wearing masks, immediately start grabbing and pulling at her, prompting Jenna to scream and unsuccessfully try to kick the door open.  In short order her parents remove the masks and reassure her that it's just them. 






Jenna's mother rips the cell phone out of Jenna's lap and furiously asks:  "What would have happened if you came out and it wasn't us sitting out here? And it was really crazy people sitting back here?"  He father adds:  "We never would've saw you again."  As Jenna's mother notes that they've even talked about this kind of thing in the past, that she's taught Jenna the dangers of rapists and abductors, Jenna sits shamefully still and silent in the van's front passenger seat.




Coby concludes his video by noting that there are over 750,000 registered sex offenders currently living in the United States (no one knows how many unregistered ones are at large) and that perhaps more parents need to have serious discussions with their children about what could happen if they act irresponsibly.  Memo to the Folks:  You simply cannot have this discussion often enough with your kids.
