Intro to my Blog...
Cyber predators and how they lurk online is often unknown and unnoticed to the untrained eye. Before you know it, you or some one that you know can become a victim of the attacks the predator might launch at you. Although not quite like Cyber Bullying, Cyber predators do many of the same things in the beginning, but then they become two different problems as the bully only harasses you and the predators want to meet you and find you. The question one would ask is: "How could I possibly get away from such a terrible and creepy situation? Everyone is on the internet!" Well, avoiding such people is easy as soon as you know what to look for.
In this blog we will discuss all of the threats that cyber predators pose on you and how they communicate with you; specifically through the action of 'grooming'. We will also learn of the many ways of dealing with such predators and avoiding them for good! I want to raise awareness of a problem that is often ignored and not properly dealt with. With the knowledge I give to you, maybe you can also learn of how real the threat is and spread the word of how to stop it!

Miller,
What strategies and tips would you give to a person on how to communicate with people online in order to be able to determine a cyber predator from a normal person?
Hello Miller,
'Cyber predators' is a very emotionally packed topic to investigate, so I respect all the research you put into this project. My question for you is, what is being done to prevent young children from encountering cyber predators? Since they are the most vulnerable to these attacks, are there things being done by law enforcement or the government?
