A shocked mother said she “cried uncontrollably” after she discovered that her daughter’s image had been used to manufacture a child sex doll that was being offered on the web.
The Florida mom, who wanted to be referred to as ‘Terri’, said a friend of her’s sent her a message regarding a doll that looked too much like her daughter being sold on Amazon for $559.
The item was listed on the web as a “high-quality sexy dolly live dolls for men.”
The doll strongly resembles a picture that Terri posted on Facebook of her daughter sitting on the couch at home.
She told local news outlet WTVJ that finding the doll has left her deeply disturbed.
“I knew it right away. I knew it … the one site, I saw her and zoomed in on her face and hair,” she said. “I couldn’t believe it.”
“I started crying,” she added. “I was just completely in shock and angry.”
The reviews left for the item were just as horrifying, with one person saying it was a “good item during these times”.
“I can’t sleep sometimes because that’s all I can think about, men who have sex with those dolls, and I can’t get them back. I just want to burn them,” the worried mother said.
Terri said she urged Amazon to remove the doll from the site, and advertisements for it were taken down in a matter of 4 days.
“All sellers must follow our selling guidelines and those who do not will be subject to action including potential removal of their account,” an Amazon representative said. “This product has been removed.”
