here are some facts to keep you safe online

  1.  if a website has a lock symbol and then https:// it is a secure website.
  2.  if it has a triangle and a exclamation mark inside it is insecure.
  3.  if an email reffers to you as a friend but they don't call you by your real name they are an imposter
  4. make sure there is no spaces in between the https://
