REMEMBER TO STAY CYBER SMART ! There's some great stuff on the Net, but some bad stuff too. It's important to be careful when using the Internet and remember these SMART rules.

 
S

Keep your personal details Secret. Never use your parents' credit card without their permission, and never give away your name, address, or passwords - it's like handing out the keys to your home!

M

Never Meet someone you have contacted in Cyberspace without your parent's/carer's permission, and then only when they can be present.

A

Don't Accept e-mails, open attachments or download files from people or organisations you don't really know or trust - they may contain viruses or nasty messages.

R

Remember that someone online may not be who they say they are. If you feel uncomfortable or worried in a chat room simply get out of there!

T

Tell your parent or carer if someone or something makes you feel uncomfortable or worried.
