Internet Fraud
They are many ways to describe a Fraud but the basic description is a LIE. When someone describes their
product or service they want to pay for by telling you only part of the truth; or only selected parts of the
truth that trick you to believe something other than what really will result or deliberately lying , they are committing a fraudulent crime. So be careful on the internet.

Cyberbullying Poem
I feel ashamed, idiotic, depressed,
Like everything is a lie,
The anger is running down my veins,
Its to much pain the horribleness is among us.
In other words its like everything is gloomy,
Like cold hands are strangling me,
Cyberbullying is not good,
Don’t witness it have faith,
Don’t let it bring you down,
I know it hurts.
I might be cyberbullying,
I’m sure I’m not,
It’s like my sweat is running,
The internet can be mean,
So can mobile phones.
