How to Protect yourself from Cyberbullying?
If you think you are being bullied, the first thing to do is to reach out to someone you trust, such as your parents, your form tutor, or your favourite teacher.
If you are not comfortable talking to someone you know, you can call a helpline number.
When online, you can always block their account. On instagram in particular, when you block someone, it gives you the option to block any accounts they may make in the future too.
What is Phishing?
An email that is trying to steal your information.
They may ask you to click on a link giving you a time frame to do it with.
A sense of urgency.
The email may not be addressed to you directly, it may say,
