Girls go missing as part of scary 48-Hour Challenge
Updated | By Mack Rapapali Nights
Parents all over the world are worried after a brand new social media challenge saw two girls go missing.
Parents are being urged to talk to their children about this social media 'game'.
Just when you thought the Momo Challenge was the worst, there's a brand new challenge aimed at your children.
The new challenge encourages children to fake their own disappearance for 48 hours for social media fame. The kids are apparently awarded points for every mention they get while they're missing.
Two girls in the US were lucky to be found unharmed after taking part in the harrowing internet game.
The two girls, Mary Tran Le, 13 and Tianny Granja, 12, were seen walking to their local bus stop at 7:30 am on Tuesday, but never made it to their school. The school alerted their parents and one of the parents immediately remembered overhearing the girls discussing the game.
"They were talking about the challenge the other day," Dayanna Gomez explained to The Daily Beast. "I just want to find my daughter, and I hope she is just hiding and not in danger."
Police later reported that the children were spotted by a woman who convinced them to get into her car before driving them home.
