Sexual Predators Online

By Lynn A. Granata

Whenever we mention the term "sexual predator" a sense of panic creeps in.

Everything from sex trafficking to LGBT to Jack the Ripper skips into the mind of wary parents all over the world.

Beware:  Online sexual predators are everywhere! Don't be fooled by them.  The internet has made life a lot less cumbersome.  Because it can and does provide so many advantages to anybody who uses it on a regular basis.  For instance, I enjoy it for retail shopping outlets like e-bay, amazon, and Best Buy. Those services make my life easier.  Other people use the internet for school, work, hobbies, research, medical, and so much more. There are the few eccentric amongst us though, that will use the internet for stuff that goes far beyond what most decent people consider within the box. 

The online sexual predator, he or she is just that, on the lookout for prey. Thanks in part to the seedy online dating sites. I'll give you a few examples of some of those.  Asian girls looking for love, hot sexy latinas who want you.  The rest is infinite and you can use your own discretion with them. Some of them should be banned because they are spam sites which represent nothing more than pornography sites looking to grab your information so that they can try to steal your identity.

Sexual predators online looking for their next unsuspecting victim are dangerous.  Many young girls have been kidnapped, raped, and murdered from the wrong person they met online. Virtually, the only thing that can prevent them from doing anything is to keep them locked up and banned from using the internet. But, there's really no other way to do this until they get caught. You can prevent becoming the next victim by practicing a few simple steps.

Never arrange to meet strange people online.  If you do always make sure to meet in a public place, such as a restaurant or coffee shop.  And never go alone. If you have nobody to accompany you, then just meet in a public place and keep it brief until you are certain they can be trusted. 

Even at that, getting to know them gradually is your best bet.
