Some signs of the fact that a woman is trafficked:

- Women, who do not know in which city, they are.

- Women, who are available 24 hours a day and all year.

- Women, who has no knowledge of the native language spoken in the actual city and country, she is in.

- Women, who stay and lives in the house of the brothel or the massage parlour.

- Women who seem to be frightened and unhappy and want to escape.

- Women, who has bruisers and/or other signs of violence and force done to them.

- Women who are under surveillance or followed by foreign men.

- Women, who gives unreliable and incoherent explanations about their situation.

- If, on the countryside, a sudden increase in activities with a lot of men and cars close to a condemned building, which before the many visitors was abandoned.

- More young and foreign women in the same apartment. The women stay only for a couple of months and then they are exchanged with other women.

Not all foreign prostitutes are a victim of sex trafficking.

The above are some of the many signs that the women might be victims of trafficking.

If, and when, you meet a prostitute e.g. by a coincidence or by choice – and if you have seen signs like the above or the like – please call the police immediately!

IF YOU ARE AFRAID THAT THE POLICE MIGHT BE CORRUPT, PLEASE GO TO THE NEAREST CHURCH TO SEEK HELP.

In some countries e.g. countries in the Eastern Europe there is a high risk that some of the police might be corrupt (most likely, they are not). If you do not know who is good or bad, better call A CHURCH instead of just leaving the trafficked victim alone.

If you do think there is a high risk of meeting a corrupt police man – PLEASE CALL ONE OF THE LOCAL NGO´S LISTED IN THE LINK ON THE LEFT: GIRL IN TROUBLE, "- you are not alone".

Usually, it is always better to call the local CHURCH or NGO – which is dedicated to help the female victim, but they are not located in every city in Europe – therefore the police are often the best choice.
