Hello!(: i'm back and today i'm going to share with you the dangers of msn so read on..

♥♥Dangers of MSN:♥♥

Okay, do you actually know what are the dangers we might face using MSN? Do you think whatever you reveal to the other party is harmless? Well, fact is, its not. Its dangerous and you are risking your life as well as your love ones' life just by telling someone your infomation. There are always consequences to every action you make so becareful. Take a look at the following to find out...

1) Anybody can add you just by searching for the type of people they want to make friends and by looking through your profile but you don't know if the person is a online predator or not as we don't know if they are who they seem to be.

2) Children have the option to accept or deny contacts from joining their list of people to talk to and they tend to accept anyone who request to add them in their contact, this opens the doors to pedophiles.

3) Sometimes we may accidentally reveal our personal infomation which we shouldn't and that has the potential danger to open the doors to online predators.

4) A common danger some of us might face is online-bullying (cyber bullying). It is the newest form of bullying which threatens school aged children and as time goes by, more and more children are becoming victims of this trend.

5) Another danger we might face is that sometimes people would send us emails containing viruses which can attack the computer operating system and destroy all of the files in that computer.

-2 short stories of what i encounted online:

I remembered a few times when i was online, i received spams through MSN messenger but luckily i knew what to do and just close that particular chat instead of clicking the link that was sent to me. There was also a few times strangers befriended me by adding my address but i knew that i should not add anyone i don't know and deny the friend request. These situations are common nowadays and i think people should not fall for these type of scams and remember not to add strangers' email address.
