More women for sale online in Cork than all of the North
The figures come from the Immigrant Council of Ireland.
There are more women for sale online in Cork than in the whole of Northern Ireland.
The Immigrant Council of Ireland says online prostitution levels are 240% higher in Ireland than those across the border - after Stormont introduced tough new laws to combat sex crimes in June.
It says much of the activity takes place along the M1 - as men travel across the border to avoid the law.
Denise Charlton of the Immigrant Council says the women are very vulnerable.
