Should you respond or talk to people you do not know, on line, outside the Globaloria Community?
No, talking to other people on the web that you don't know could be dangerous if you tell them specific information about yourself.
Can you be sure the person you are talking to has actually represented themselves accurately?
In most cases, no. Many people on the internet lie about their age, location, etc. You can never be entirely sure they are who they say they are unless you have special access to certain programs.
Why do we ask you to hide your personal information?
To keep the students safe from predators and people with bad intentions. There could be many things people will do for no reason.
Why must you never give your Social Security Number or bank account number to anyone online?
With that information, they can most likely access your bank accounts and steal all your money.
Not only can people steal your money with your bank account number and Social Security Number; they can steal your identity and buy cars, as well as,take out loans under your name.
