Read the following passage and then give short answers to the following five

instant messages e-mails and chatrooms. The ability to spot "digital deception",

and social life is conducted online, making us increasingly vulnerable. White
collar criminals, sexual predators, scammers, identity thieves and even
terrorists surf the same Web as the rest of us.
