Teen date website faces criticism
A Newsbeat investigation has uncovered a dating website specifically for teenagers which campaigners fear will become a "playground for paedophiles". Children's Charity, NSPCC, says MyLOL.net, which is marketed for teenagers but has hundreds of adult profiles, should clean up its act or be shut down. The site's owner claims there are security measures in place and they'll be toughened up soon. The front page of the site shows a picture of a female in her underwear, who is its most popular member. It has 17,000 members worldwide and if you put teen dating into Google, it comes up first in the search. It has almost 1,700 members in the UK, a quarter of which are under-16. Many of them are pictured in swimwear or underwear. It also has more than 150 male members who are listed as older than 40.
