The Dangers of Animal Jam

Love:

Lots of Jammers like to find girlfriends/boyfriends, and they like to "Be in love". But is that really safe? No. You can't love someone when you don't know their name, and you haven't even seen them before. And, you don't even know what gender the other person is. Some people like to pretend to be a boy, when they're actually a girl, and play with you by pretending to love you. Or, they might be 40 years old and pretend to be in love with you. And, on top of that, AJ isn't a place for love. AJ is a place for talking to friends, playing games, and having fun. Not a place for online dating.

Scamming and Hacking:

There are many scammers and hackers all over Animal Jam. The best thing to do to not get scammed or hacked is to stay out of their way. Report them and leave. If they threaten you, block them or log off. And if they say,"I'll report you." Don't get scared. Because when you click report, AJHQ checks to see if they should REALLY report you. You should only be scared if you really did do something bad! But hopefully, you didn't do anything bad. But if people ask for your personal information, that is where you draw the line. No matter what they offer in return for your name, you just ignore them. This is what you do: 

1. Block them

2. Report them

3. If you really feel uncomfortable, log off.

This also goes for most scammers and hackers. You can stay safe by just ignoring them!

Chat:

You have to be careful when you talk on Animal Jam. Anyone can take a picture of what you say and email it to someone, post it on a website, text it, ect. Just like I took a picture of that person saying," If you like me my den." So be careful about what you say! You don't want to be on the news because you said something on Animal Jam! And people can also worm personal information out of you, so be really careful about that! Remember, what ever you say, the whole would can see it. So be careful!
