Hello, I’m Grape ~
In recent years, a "partner culture" has become popular. When searching on the Internet and social platforms, all kinds of partner-seeking stickers will appear: travel partner, game partner, weight-loss partner, fishing partner, fitness partner, music festival partner … anything you can.

Besides finding partners, the Internet is a good place for young people to make friends and fall in love, but it is precisely because of the convenience of the Internet that this young culture and way of making friends are popular, and its potential risks also follow.
Because most online friends and love will move to the offline base and rush. And leaving the false online world, the perfect ta in your impression may reveal its true face, or even have ulterior motives …
Today’s safety guide for girls, let’s talk about the risks and precautions of offline foundation!

Possible risks of sub-line base
* No one was killed with a stick, just talk about the possible risks and remind everyone!
Under the line, the base can’t match the number, but it threatens personal safety. Not only offline, but also online communication stage, the risk already exists.
information security
Presumably, everyone knows that the identity information provided by these partners and netizens is probably false, right?
In the public identity information, ta’s information may be false from beginning to end, and the age, occupation, gender, hobbies and even photos are all processed. The person you are facing is an artificial setup made up by ta by all means, which is not the real situation. And naive you, all the real information revealed out …
A friend will say, "Who is so stupid that he will reveal his true information? 」
You know, even if you are vigilant, the other party may lock you in through the dynamics published by your circle of friends and social platforms. There are some bad situations, such as home address being leaked, information being hijacked, photos being abused, etc …
And looking for a travel partner offline, it is inevitable to buy tickets to travel together, and then your identity information may be stolen.
personal security
There is no need to explain too much about personal safety. If you encounter a pervert or a trafficker, you will face sexual assault, trafficking, and even deception to North Myanmar …
You may feel a little alarmist, but similar incidents did happen. When searching for relevant information, a post caught the attention of grapes:
A netizen posted an article titled "Attention, 2003 girls who want to meet netizens in Huizhou!"! The content of the post is a screenshot of netizens chatting in a group. From it, we can see that the netizen S in the group chat is promoting his little sister who is about to meet him, claiming that "the chat has been paved and the hotel has been opened in 2003 …"
In other words, the so-called noodle base is just a trap carefully designed by this person, just waiting for the other party to take the bait. Once the swindler’s plot succeeds, the girl will face great harm, and this is just one of them. We dare not imagine how many such scams and injuries there are in the world.
In addition, there is a noteworthy place in this post. Netizen S also posted the video of Xiaomei to the group, and then it was discovered by the majority of netizens that this video was not Xiaomei herself, and the real protagonist of the video was a girl who had nothing to do with this matter. The girl said: The video she sent to her circle of friends was stolen. This also confirms the information security problem we mentioned earlier.
In addition to being sexually assaulted, you may also be trafficked and deceived to northern Myanmar.
Recently, the events in northern Myanmar have been frequently searched, including journalists who went to expose the truth regardless of the danger, and witnesses who survived. Their reports and memories showed the terrible and unscrupulous fraud gangs in northern Myanmar to the public, and also let us know that many people have not escaped. When they first went to North Myanmar, except for expecting high-paying jobs to take the initiative, the rest were basically cheated by relatives and friends.
Once cheated, violent beatings, personal control, rape and sexual assault, forced drug use … these inhuman treatments are all possible. If you think it’s far away from you and you can’t be deceived to North Myanmar, then the next fact is closer.
That is: the person you are chatting with and falling in love with is probably a person who specializes in fraud. As the other person gets to know your information step by step and gains your goodwill day by day, maybe fraud is close at hand.

property safety
According to the witness who fled from northern Myanmar, the companies there are engaged in the fraud work aimed at domestic women, playing games, falling in love with women and cheating money, commonly known as "killing pigs".
The other party may induce you under the guise of investing together, or directly ask for borrowing money and helping to order a link, and finally lose both money and people.
In a word, danger is everywhere. So how should we avoid these dangers?
Matters needing attention in face base
Grapes have compiled some precautions for your reference ~
Mianjiqian
1. Avoid money transactions when communicating, and don’t click on the link sent by the other party easily;
2. Do not disclose personal home address, company and other specific information;
3. Agree on the time and place of the noodle base, choose daytime as the time, and choose a crowded and familiar big business district as the place;
4. Inform your family and friends of the purpose, time and place of this trip in advance, set up danger signals (such as sending specific numbers, stipulating the time limit for replying messages, etc.), and ensure that someone knows your whereabouts and safety;
5. Set an alarm clock in advance, and you can leave by answering the phone when you feel uncomfortable.
6. Prepare protective articles such as anti-wolf spray, just in case.
Face-based time
1. Keep close contact with family and friends;
2. Be wary of the other party’s request to get along alone in a private space (such as ktv, private cinema, car);
3. Mention the details of online communication and verify whether the other party is an online communicator;
4. Don’t eat and drink the food and drinks provided by the other party easily, especially those opened in advance and far away from your sight;
5. Carry important items such as bags with you;
6. Consumption AA generated by noodle base.
Mianjihou
1. Be alert to the other party’s request to send you home;
2. Evaluate whether the other party meets your expectations. Even if you feel good, don’t blindly trust;
3. We should still be vigilant. It is not excluded that some swindlers "catch big fish in a long line" and pay attention to safety when they meet later.

That’s all the precautions grapes thought of. After all, a person’s strength is limited, so we also collected suggestions from readers. Let’s take a look ~
Motu soil
First, there must be a video call to avoid cheating, even in the case of developed AI technology; Second, we must know more about each other’s information, and feel each other’s views on family and friends from the process of talking with each other, so that we can know whether some of their personalities are consistent with ourselves; Third, the site must be open; Fourth, if there is anything that makes you uncomfortable before and during the dough-making, you can find an excuse to leave. You must be vigilant and don’t blindly trust each other. As long as you feel uncomfortable, there must be something wrong.
If the other person is tempted to touch the color, please call loudly to attract the attention of the people around you, and then grab the things and run away.

Dabaibai
I have seen more than a dozen male netizens who have met in games, and I have some precautions to share with you: when meeting, I should choose someone who has known each other for a long time and is close to my age; Don’t treat netizens as real friends, unless the relationship has reached the point where there is nothing to say, after all, the network will still hide its true self more or less; When you meet for the first time, you must choose a place with high safety factor.
Ask about the motivation of making friends first, although the other person may not say what he really thinks, and at the same time clearly express his attitude. When meeting for the first time, it’s best to explain in advance the time you want to end or reveal the schedule behind you. Don’t procrastinate too much. Even if you feel good, you should have moderate contact.

to one’s heart’s content
Meet alone only with the same sex. If there is the opposite sex, it must be a group of people with the same sex that they trust. Do not meet minors alone; Don’t go to KTV and other places when you meet for the first time, and don’t drink; Know each other long enough to meet again; As for the exhibition/concert and other activities, it is just a simple meeting, which has little impact.
Have a certain understanding in front of the noodle base, be sure to meet in public places, and never stay too late with the noodle base object casually, and don’t follow the noodle base object to remote places! No matter whether the target is old people, children or women, no matter how safe and powerful you think you are, people’s hearts are unpredictable. Protect yourself in case you regret it.

Ok, that’s all for this issue ~
Let’s make it clear that not all scammers are encountered on the Internet, but many scammers are hidden on the Internet. This article just reminds everyone that I hope we will not meet them!
Good morning, I love this world.
