It’s important to be aware that people & situations online aren’t always as they seem. Deciding between what’s real & what’s fake is an important life skill.
Being wise is also recognising that some people use technology to promote untruths, enhance reality & trick people into doing things they normally wouldn’t do. A good phrase to remember is “if something appears too good to be true, then it probably is!”
