The OPP is warning parents and children to be aware of online predators, after three people were charged in Perth, Verona and Toronto for allegedly attempting to lure children in online venues for sexual purposes.
Each of the three arrested were dealing with undercover officers, and not actual victims.
OPP Acting Detective Inspector Sharon Hanlon stresses the importance of teaching your children how to deal with potential online predators.
The first step is to talk to your kids and make them aware of potential predators in an age-appropriate manner and always watch what your kids do online.
The Canadian Centre for Child Protection can help. They can be found at protect-children-dot-ca.
