**__The death of Nona – she met her killer on Facebook__**
Facebook is one example of a social networking website that has attracted much attention by both the State and Federal Governments who are seeking to stop such social networking sites and other new technologies being used inappropriately. There are many behaviours raised by the use of such networking sites including:
 * breaches of privacy
 * bullying
 * cyber-exploitation
 * cyber-attacks.

In May 2010 an 18 year old girl went to Leumeah station to meet a man she had befriended on Facebook. She thought he worked for the NSW Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Service or WIRES and thought she would be doing an overnight camping trip to research habitats at Campbelltown in preparation for a job working with animals - a lifetime passion she had. Instead, she was found dead, lying in a creekbed. Nona Belomesoff had become 'friends' with Christopher James Dannevig on Facebook. Dannevig has been charged with her murder and is due to appear at Campbelltown Local Court this week.
