Internet users, especially the teens, nowadays are vulnerable to malicious acts in the web such as online frauds and scams, pornographic sites and others.

2. Don’t put strangers on your buddy list.

3. Don’t post potentially embarrassing images of yourself online.

4. Remember that anyone can read blogs.

5. Communicate only with friends and family.

6. Tell your parents if you receive anything that makes you feel uncomfortable.
