How To Know If Something Is Fake Online

Today we had to write down a list of ideas that will help us know if someone is trying to now our personal info or if you are on a dangerous website, so I am going to show you how to know. The first this you need to check for the website is the URL if it has a green lock then its safe but if it has spaces in the URL then it is dangerous and a fake website. But if your getting an email then here is how to know if its good or bad. It is a bad email if someone asks for a password or credit card details. For example last Thursday the class saw an animal called the tree octopus. It was on a website with lots of information but lots of the pictures looked really fake. Then I looked at the URL and it did not have a lock and it had spaces in the URL so at that moment I new that it was fake. It was hard figuring out if it were real or fake but easy researching to find if it was true. I hope this has taught you how to stay safe online and not go onto dangerous websites.Image result for tree octopus
