The actual definition is described as the following: the practice of people being tricked, lured or otherwise removed from their home or country, and then compelled to work with no or low payment or on terms which are highly exploitative.

The conditions they live in are inhumane. They are forced to work as slaves. Human Trafficking is Modern Day Slavery. There are over 27 million victims today. No denying that the number is sadly high, but still very true.

Who does it involve?

Anyone can be a victim of human trafficking and anyone could be a trafficker. Even in America there are victims, both from other countries and from the U.S.

Victims are forced to serve up to 50 men a night. The customers vary by how many the women and children can get. Most of the money, if not all, goes to the trafficker. Child traffic involves about 2.2 million children every year. The youngest sex slave was under age 5.
