Very dangerous phenomenon, which we have seen in the last few months on Czech and international social networks and within common communication tools based on instant messengers (ICQ, Skype) are fake videos that are projected to chosen victims (children or adults) instead of real stream from a webcam. The risk of misuse of this technology is really high due to the low awareness. You can judge the way the records are believable.
