Be Internet Smart
Online rule #1: DO NOT give anyone any money for any reason! Even if you think you know that person.
On every website where people can sign up, dishonest people try to scam members by convincing them to wire them money. The scammers are smart and know how to make up believable stories. If any member at PenPal World asks you for money for ANY REASON, stop communicating with that person, block him or her, and please report that member immediately.
Protect yourself online
PenPal World is protecting its members by only showing your age (not birthday), gender and country in your profile. Most importantly, we never show your real name or email address.
We strongly recommend that you never post your email address or any other identifiable information, such as your home address or phone number, anywhere on PenPal World. Other people can collect them and sell them to an advertising company, and then you will get lots of scam emails directly to your email address.
