Internet Safety Tips for Cadets (Annex A to Chp 6, ACP 4)
Never give out personal information to online mates, ie name, address, nickname, passwords and mobile phone numbers for you, your family or friends.
Never send pictures or videos of yourself – anyone can change it or share it.
Never arrange to meet a stranger you have contacted online.
Never accept emails or open files from people you don’t really know or trust as these may contain viruses or worse, an inappropriate image or film.
If you receive spam/junk emails – never believe them, reply to them or use them.
Never forward chain emails.
Remember, people may not be who, or how old they say, they are.
Never reply to cyber-bullying: block the sender, save the evidence, and tell a responsible adult.
If someone is making you feel uncomfortable or worried whilst communicating online – don’t be afraid to tell a responsible adult or report the matter by visiting the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre at
If you have seen illegal online content, ie images of child abuse, criminally obscene images, criminally racist content, you can report this by visiting the Internet Watch Foundations at www.iwf.org.uk
Set social networking profiles to “private” and be careful who is added as a “friend” – “friends” on these sites should also be friends in real life.
Don’t spend too much time online: have “real world” friends and interests too.
