The suspect, a 33-year-old man abducted and held the 16-year-old girl captive for five days, after he developed a cyber relationship with her through, MXit, the popular mobile chat service used by over 2.3 million people, mostly teenagers in South Africa. <div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>This <a href="http://netucation.co.za/category/announcements/">article</a> is one that is targeted towards parents and guardians warning them of the dangerous predators online. The article presents parents with possible solutions and ways in which they can educate themselves and their children about the possible online predators.
