When we meet people in person, we like to share information about ourselves, whether it is to see if you have something in common or just to tell them about yourself. This goes for online people you meet also. Just like there are strangers in real life, there are strangers on the internet. These strangers may want to gain access to your information for bad reasons. We MUST use caution when sharing.
Why do you think we like to share information?
What is an bad guy?
What could an online bad guy want with your

What if you had a wallet and a stranger found it?
What could that stranger do with it?
