                     The Hidden Trap

                     We  all love to  play  games  but  sometimes there is
                     a hidden trap. Many games and apps offer special

                     items like they are FREE to start or inside the game,
                     you might get a message saying, “Buy this cool sword
                     for `500!” or “Get extra lives for just `100!” These

                     are called an  In-App  Purchases. It means  buying
                     things inside the app and they cost real money!

                     It is easy  to  accidentally  tap  the  BUY  button,  but
                     remember, these purchases use real money from the bank account of your parents.
