Internet predators

The (Australian) federal government body NetAlert, along with ninemsn, have done a survey, showing that boys were more willing to share information and more trusting of people they met online than girls.

Subsequently they have warned parents their sons are just as likely to be preyed on by internet predators as their daughters.

A NetAlert spokesperson have stated that "(...) boys are just as much at risk from online dangers, including predators, as girls."
