This is not an isolated case. This is not the first time internet dating has resulted into something deadly.Go check out the web on how many times women have been raped,killed,deceived etc by people they'd known virtually for ages! Yes I have friends who found spouses via the internet as well,and Alhamdullilah they are great guys too, that doesn't mean its not risky.Rather one has to be very cautious in how you handle it. Do much research and background checking specially if the other person is not from your locality or country. My friends too did much researching as did their parents. Fact is the world is not getting any safer!
