The attacks can continue indefinitely against the victim due to the lack of awareness on the part of others reporting or stopping the bullying. In “Cyberbullying and Cyber ​​Threats: Responding to the Challenge of Online and Social Aggression, Threats, and Discomfort” it is stated that “adolescents are reluctant to tell adults for fear of overreactions, restrictions on online activities, and possible retaliation from of the cyberbully” (Willard, page 1). Teens are afraid to report incidents like this because they think adults will overreact and they don't believe someone can bully you online because bullying has always happened in person and not behind a screen. Teens are also scared of the consequences that could result from cyberbullying if they report the harassment because they may think that the bullying will multiply. Another real-life example: “Mary, an obese high school student, was changing in the locker room after gym class. Jessica secretly took a photo of her with her cell phone camera. Within a few seconds the image was circulating on school cell phones (Willard, page 1)”. The example shows us how cyberbullying can turn into something big in a matter of seconds. The victim may face bullying at home and school without having peace. Not just on social media, but victims may receive inflammatory emails and text messages on their phone
