Tell your parent

It can feel really upsetting to get something by email which you didn't want and lots of times it can be through no fault of your own. Similarly it can be really creepy if you trusted someone you were chatting with, and then weren't sure. Everyone makes mistakes and so it is always best to talk to a friend, Guide leader or parent if someone, or something you see or receive on line makes you feel uncomfortable.

In NZ, you can also report anything you think is illegal to www.netsafe.org.nz Internet Safety Group which works with the police to get illegal material removed from the Internet. There are other Hotlines in other countries see www.inhope.org for a full list.
