As drug dealers in Oakland turn to pimping for greater profits and lower legal risk, they fill their pockets by exploiting legions of young women from 11 to 17 years of age. Pimps are marketing girls on the Internet, listing hundreds who can be found behind Web links advertising "**Hot, SexXxy, Young**" women. This cyber activity makes it more difficult for local law enforcement to catch perpetrators than other crimes such as drug dealing or gang activity. This "Vanguard" report features three young prostitutes who discuss their experiences and plans for the future.

"Vanguard" airs every Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT. "Vanguard" pods are also available on Current.com/Vanguard.
