Dang, it’s really sad but the fact of the matter is you can’t be too careful now days about the kind of people you start friendships or relationships of any kind with really! I personally don’t think the whole meeting someone to start talking on the Internet (so they are a stranger anyway you look at that) then meeting them in person when you have no idea what type of individual this may turn out to be is asking for trouble in my opinion!
