Teen girls use Bebo to trade sex for drugs

Another great drug story from New Zealand. File this under "Technology at work for you":

Teenage girls are offering sex for drugs on social networking website Bebo, police say.

Officers said teenagers were using the site to find drug dealers and offer sexual favours in exchange for alcohol and drugs, The Nelson Mail reported today.

Nelson Youth Aid officer Constable Kathy Pomfrett said that while most teenagers used Bebo safely and like a chatroom, a growing number were using it to trade in sexual favours.

Miss Pomfrett said teenage girls are putting nude photos of themselves on the site and offering a range of sexual favours in return for alcohol and drugs ranging from cannabis to methamphetamine.

Isn't free trade a wonderful thing?
