A new challenge is doing the rounds, and it's as deadly as the Blue Whale game that made headlines last year and resulted in several teenage deaths. It's called the MOMO challenge and It's primary target is the mentally vulnerable. The challenge allegedly throws a series of tasks for its chosen player, with the final task asking them to take their lives. It first started on Facebook where those selected were asked to communicate with an unknown person via an unknown number. The link of the game is now reportedly being circulated via Whatsapp. The first death related to the Momo Challenge took place in Argentina in early August when a 12-year-old girl filmed her tasks on the phone before committing suicide.
