ATLANTA () – The Federal Bureau of Investigation is cracking down on child sex abuse offenders.

Investigators with the FBI in Atlanta say it’s part of “Operation Restore Justice” where they rescued 115 children and arrested 205 people in just the past week.

In Georgia, the FBI says nine people were charged with the operation including five in Atlanta, two in Augusta and two in Rome.

The FBI said those charges include possession of child sexual abuse material including pornographic content and material to entice a minor, and obstruction of justice.

Officials say to remind your children to not share any comprising picture online or via phone, especially to stranger, as criminals can use that to threaten you for money.

“Those are the ones who will notice a change in behavior to monitor both their online and offline activity. Are they becoming secretive? Are they withdrawing activities that they enjoyed in the past? Are they talking about sexual topics that would be inappropriate or why they have that knowledge?” said Special Agent Paul Brown of FBI Atlanta.

The FBI said this is part of a nationwide effort with all 55 FBI field offices working together to crack down on child abuse offenders.

The Department wants the public to report any suspected child exploitation cases to the FBI tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI or www.tips.fbi.gov.
