Safety on the Internet!
Keep safe or risk being stalked.......
Do you know how to keep safe on the Internet???
- A) Give it to them, they're your best friend
- B) Tell them you'll give it to them at school just to be safe
- C) Tell them no and just ignore them after.
Most people would of picked A because they're your best friend and you can trust them, but if you really care about your safety you would pick B because then you can trust it is actually them and not some dirty paedophile .
Someone asks to be your friend on Facebook and your not sure of you know them
- A) Accept it. The more friends the better!
- B) Ask them how they know you and if they say yes and give you proof accept it but if not then don't.
- C) Decline it and log off Facebook.
You are setting up a new account for Facebook. Do you :
- A) Put all your personal details on it like your real name, address, age, DOB, school town and country
- B) Put a nickname, fake DOB and age but have your address school town and country on it.
- C) Put a nickname, fake DOB and age, and no other details
Most people would pick B because they think 'oh it doesn't matter as long as i have a nickname and a fake age I'll be fine' but really they would not be 'fine', but if you really cared about your safety you would pick C because you would be completely safe as no stranger would be able to find you easily and you would still be able to enjoy Facebook as you could tell your friends your name so they could add you.
