The following links have useful information and advice on how to make sure that you are using the internet safely.
1. They will try to gain your trust and 'make friends' with you.
They build this trust by making you think they have things in common with you - like hobbies or the game that you're playing with them.
2. They might try to get you to do things like add them on a social network, give them your phone number, send them photos or chat on webcam. This can get very difficult if they talk about things which make you uncomfortable or ask you to do things you don't want to do.
3. They might offer to tell you 'cheats' or help you out with the game.
If they ask for something in return, think about why they are doing this - are they a 'real' friend or trying to build your trust - be alert!
4. Remember, if they share a link with you it could be a computer virus or spyware which tells the person your personal information without you knowing- be careful and don't click on links from people you don't know!
5. They may encourage you to tell them personal information such as where you live and what school you go to. This is part of their attempt to get your trust and will tell them how to find you in the real world.
