Safety Tips
Mobile Chatting Safety: Safety-wise, chatting on the mobile is inherently similar to chatting on net or offline. As long as the same standard chatting precautions are followed, mobile-savvy chatters can feel truly at ease while making new friends.
Helpful Hints for Common Sense Mobile Chatting:
1. Remember that you are in control of your mobile chatting experience at all times. You can remain completely anonymous until you feel ready.
2. You are also in control when it comes to taking a mobile chatting relationship offline. Plus, you have an advantage online because you can get to know each other before you meet. Remember that you don't need to take anything further than the computer or mobile phone until you feel completely comfortable. Go at your own pace!
3.Never include your personal contact information in your profile, especially telephone numbers, email, home address or your name, and only give them out when your instincts tell you this is someone you can trust. It's okay to take your time.
4. Ask a lot of questions and watch for inconsistencies.
If someone asks you to go to their personal web site or asks you for money, use common sense not to oblige and then report the situation.
5. If someone gives you a phone number with a strange area code, check it out to make sure it's not a charge number before you make the call.
6. Using your own good judgment is your best bet because ultimately you are responsible for your personal mobile chatting experience. Trust your instincts and then have fun with the right people!
