The Internet and community/chat sites are great resources, but there will always be people on them with bad intentions. Please read our tips and guidelines on this page to help you stay safe from identity theft, hacking, cyber stalking, harassment, bullying and Internet predators.
YOUR STATUS
You must be a graphic designer aged 16 or over to qualify for any promotions on this site. If you are under 16 please do not enter any competitions, promotions or job referrals.
OTHER PEOPLE
It’s very easy to lie on the Internet. We recommend that you take precautions to endeavour that a potential seller or buyer has genuine intent.
We recommend that if you send money, you do so via a safe and secure pay system. If you do not do this, you may become another scam victim.
If you want to meet someone you have only ever chatted to on the phone or online, make sure you do the following:
- Tell someone else where you are going, what time and for how long.
- Always meet in a very public place and only during the daytime.
- Try to take at least one friend with you.
- If you think the other person is lying or you are unsure about anything walk away.
