- SAFE - Staying safe involves being careful and not giving out your name, address, mobile phone no., school name or password to people online.
- MEETING someone you have contacted in cyberspace can be dangerous. Only do so with your parent's/carer's permission, and then when they can be present.
- ACCEPTING e-mails or opening files from people you don't really know or trust can get you into trouble - they may contain viruses or nasty messages.
- RELIABLE - Someone online maybe lying about who they are, and information you find on the Internet may not be reliable.
- TELL your parent or carer if someone or something makes you feel uncomfortable or worried.
You might think you've met some real cool friends in Chat rooms but how can you be sure who you're talking to? The person may be nice and trustworthy, but then again they may not be. I tell my mates not to put too much info in my Chatprofile and never arrange to meet up with anyone you've been chatting to - Chat room mates are best left in cyberspace. You might think you're clued up about using the Net safely, but make sure you look out for your mates and remind them to be very careful and stick to the SMART rules.
