However, she did warn users to be wary of who they meet up and ensure they are being safe. 

'It is important that users understand that the internet isn't the same as the face-to-face environment,' she said.

'You can't be sure that the person you are speaking to is who they say they are.'

'If you are considering meeting someone that you have met online ensure that it is in a public location, that someone knows where you are and remember to trust your doubts about people you're meeting who don't resemble their pictures or if you have a suspicion that someone is being dishonest,' she said.

She also said that the police are there to help if you feel uncomfortable or need help in a bad situation.
