Traffickers are already recruiting Brazilian girls as young as 11 to work as prostitutes for foreign tourists during the World Cup, charities reveal

BRAZIL - JULY 16:  Prostitutes work in the Copacabana neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Sunday night, July 15, 2007. With 700,000 visitors flooding into Rio de Janeiro, the Pan American Games are a profit opportunity for prostitutes in Brazil, where their occupation is legal.
