she met <strong>the</strong> man, who styled himself as a new age guru, when she turned to <strong>the</strong> Internet for comfort. She was 15 at<br />
<strong>the</strong> time and was drawn to his website. Almost <strong>in</strong>stantly, Diane fell under <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>fluence of "Amadon" - <strong>the</strong> cult<br />

described Amadon as a "foul-mou<strong>the</strong>d zealot who psychologically controlled his workers" and who had been<br />
successfully sued for sexual harassment by two former employees <strong>in</strong> Santa Rosa, California, <strong>in</strong> 1996. With<strong>in</strong> a day<br />
of arriv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> state of Oregon she secretly married Amadon - a sham marriage to get US citizenship - and<br />
declared that she is never return<strong>in</strong>g home. The SAPS told <strong>the</strong> Saturday Star its <strong>Child</strong> Protection Unit was busy with<br />

meet<strong>in</strong>g for sex with a 13-year-old girl <strong>in</strong> an America Onl<strong>in</strong>e chat room. A female member of <strong>the</strong> attorney general's<br />

If you have <strong>in</strong>ternet access, and 52 per cent of Australian households do, it's more than likely your children have an<br />
<strong>in</strong>stant messag<strong>in</strong>g (IM) session open as well.IM and onl<strong>in</strong>e chat are fast becom<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> early 21st-century equivalent<br />
of email <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> 1990s - a pervasive part of our lives at work, home, school and when we are out and about via mobile<br />
phone.About 10.5 million Australians browse <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>ternet every month, and accord<strong>in</strong>g to Nielsen/Netrat<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>the</strong> No.<br />
1 IM service, MSN Messenger, reaches 32 per cent of <strong>the</strong> onl<strong>in</strong>e community and 60 per cent of onl<strong>in</strong>e 12-to-17year-olds.For<br />
parents, <strong>the</strong> pervasiveness of IM raises <strong>the</strong> issue of m<strong>in</strong>imis<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> risks <strong>in</strong>herent <strong>in</strong> such services.<br />
Diligent parents are careful to monitor who <strong>the</strong>ir children associate with, but <strong>the</strong> anonymity of <strong>the</strong> net makes this<br />
difficult.Even if you are sitt<strong>in</strong>g beside your child, all that can be seen is <strong>the</strong> messag<strong>in</strong>g w<strong>in</strong>dow with sender's screen<br />
name, or "handle", which may bear no relation to <strong>the</strong> person's real identity. Last year, two separate Queensland<br />
Crime and Misconduct Commission and police "st<strong>in</strong>g" operations netted two men, aged 23 and 28, who made<br />
contact <strong>in</strong> chat rooms with undercover policewomen masquerad<strong>in</strong>g as 13-year-old girls.In each case, <strong>the</strong> man<br />
engaged <strong>the</strong> girl <strong>in</strong> sexually explicit conversation.<br />
