Most people online just want to be friends or chat
But not everyone is like this. People can also pretend to be someone else online.
Things to watch out for
Be careful if you feel that something is not right. Maybe someone’s online profile looks like they are your age, but it does not match what you see or hear when you talk or chat with them. Or maybe they ask you to send photos of yourself.
What do to
Tell your mum, dad, carer or a trusted adult. They can help to keep you safe and work out what to do.
