BASIC INTERNET SAFETY TOP 5:

2. Be careful what you chat about. Do not give out personal info of any kind e.g. your full name, address, tel number etc.

There is a tendancey to think that because the internet is quite impersonal its easier to be more open online. However this is not sensible.
In a face-to-face situation, would you think it a good idea to give a complete stranger your name, address and telephone number without first knowing much about them? Remember that in a Chat Room/Message Board/E-mail it's very easy for people to pretend and make things up about themselves without you knowing the real truth. If you're posting a profile, don't include any info which could help to identify you offline.
