Internet Safety Tips

Here are very useful safety tips for internet users.

- It's best not to give out personal details to online mates.

- Personal stuff includes your messenger id, email address, mobile number and any pictures of you, your family or friends.

- If you publish a picture or video online – anyone can change it or share it.

- SPAM/ Junk email & texts: don’t believe it, reply to it or use it.

- It’s not a good idea to open files that are from people you don’t know. You won’t know what they contain – it could be a virus, or worse – an inappropriate image or film.

- It’s easier to get on with people online and say stuff you wouldn’t offline.

- Some people lie online.

- It’s better to keep online mates online. Don’t meet up with any strangers without an adult you trust. Better to be uncool than unsafe!

- It’s never too late to tell someone if something makes you feel uncomfortable.
