Possible threat for a child

One of the most possible and serious threat for a child is the chances of falling for any trap related to marketing scams. If that's not enough then a child poses threat even from various malwares and viruses which enter into the computer when the kids download unverified data in form of free games and free software. A child can also fall prey to phishing, cyberbullying and pornography sites when he or she visits few of those pages provided by the search engines. One more threat that poses as danger for not just kids but for parents is the uploading of personal information and family images to unreliable sites. Nowadays kids are also known to provide parent's credit card information online for buying games as well as other items on various phishing sites.
When a child types a word search in any of the search engines, along with useful data many unreliable links too are provided. If a child visits those links which lure kids with free game download or win prizes etc, then the child has just invited trouble for him as well as his family!
