A safety message

Hi Everyone:A friend sent us an email that we have tried to post here several times, but for whatever reason its glitching. In any case we will give you a little synopsis.

Please make sure you really know who you are talking to. The email talked about how information can be gathered by someone over many conversations.

For example:

If in one conversation you give someone your school name, and some weeks or months later you give them your real name, followed by weeks or months where you tell them where your hang-outs are, where you practice sports, some of your friends names, etc etc etc;

And even though someone can pretend to be across country, they could really live in your city and just say they live far-away to make you feel better about giving out information.

Before long though, they pretty much know everything about you.

It's great to make friends online, but please really know who someone is before you tell them too much. In other words if you know them in the real-world thats cool, and if one of your good friends knows them in the real world that might be okay too. But please glorify the Lord by protecting yourself!

The CMT Staff loves ya, and we want you to all stay safe!
