Be careful who you trust online: remember that people you have met online are still strangers, no matter how long you have been talking to them or how friendly they are. Meeting up with these people can be dangerous, so only do so with your parents or carers permission, even then only when they can be present.

Can you trust a guy you met online?

Be Vigilant to Trust Too Soon And the risk is higher with someone you met online. This is because it is hard to gauge what a person is when you only know a bit about him from himself. That is why you should never easily believe everything people say behind their screens.
