A new social media website is turning into a haven for vicious cyber-bullies taunting their victims about suicide, self-harm and weight issues.
Ask.fm is the latest hit website among teenagers, with more than 40 million users worldwide, but parents and schools are shocked by the content.
On the website, members create a profile and are asked questions either by other members or anonymous users.
Most of the questions are innocent – about favourite school subjects or bands – but the website is quickly becoming another tool for cyber-bullies.
Teenagers on the website are being bombarded with swearing and abuse, while others were being asked highly explicit questions about sex and self-harming.
