Fifteen-year-old leaves note scribbled on newspaper for family; cops find out about game after scanning his online activity

Even as the police are struggling to figure how to combat the Blue Whale Challenge, there's another game doing the rounds that has children and youth in its grip. It's called Blue Net and is most likely a spin-off of the original. The parents of a 15-year-old boy are frantically searching for him after he left his home in Govandi on Sunday, purportedly to kill himself to fulfil the challenge. He scribbled a note for his family on a newspaper that said, "I know what I am doing is wrong, but do not look for me, consider me dead." The family has told the police that he has taken a few notebooks with him. His phone has been switched off since.
