Only 35 % of Bulgarian teenagers care about online risks 
Only 35 per cent of the users of a popular Bulgarian dating site declare they are acting carefully online despite that fact that they are aware of possible risks a recent survey showed.
Neogen – the owner of the Impulse.bg website self-declared as "the most popular social network of young people in Bulgaria", carried out an online survey among its more than 970,000 registered users betwen November 11 and December 7. Overall 33,887 users responded to the question "Do you think there are dangers on the Internet?".
‘Yes, that is why I am cautious" was the response chosen by 35 % of the users. Another 55 % chose the answer "Probably but I do not worry" and 10 % responded "No, nothing can happen to me".
The results of the survey show that girls are twice as cautious as boys. The survey proved that the level of awareness varies depending on the place the users live. Among young people in smaller towns those who think there are no risks online are 20% higher than minors living in the 5 biggest cities in the country.
