It is seen that most of the people do not trust strangers. There are many in this cyber world. Few are asking for a helping hands to benefit from each other. This is a give and take policy and I trust those who assures to help me. What I feel personally is that there are lot many people who are genuinely eager to help others by benefitting themselves in future course of time. But there are few who are culprits and put scam. I am one who is seeking trustful people as I want to maintain a healthy business relationship by way of give and take. What do you seek in your virtual friends? Do you trust all of them?

At least I can't put blame on anyone, if that person does not trust me, being a stranger. So far as I am concerned, I do not know what you have meant by the word trust, means vertical depth of the relationship, but I trust people who recommend good stuff, and I usually do not trust people claiming to make me rich overnight. It depends a lot on the attitude and online personality/presence of that person.
Regarding security issues, I do not place reliance on anybody else.

It is your good nature. I think if you go to try what exactly the thing is than you can be sure of what exactly an stranger is going to say about. Suppose, in my previous discussion, I suggested a site which earns little faster. After getting the link, you can verify about its earning potential before adding me as your referrer. If I come trustworthy to you, you can add me as your referrer and if not you can avoid joining the site. You always have a way if you have will.
Anyway, thanks for your response and I admire your view point.

I don't trust them.Trust can be made by the each other understanding.This understanding is called friendship.

Unless you trust someone, you can't go for extending your relations. First you need to be friends and only that will decide whether they will come up as your trusted friends. I suppose, it is good to trust after experiments and gathering enough proof to trust a person. But sometimes it is necessary to take faster decisions as the person whom you are going to trust after experiments may leave you wondering about his/her existance if you are late.

It is good to trust some people sometimes but not always. Before trusting someone, you should have sufficient reason to trust that particular person. I first test their trustworthiness and then only decide what next. So, I end up with good friends only except some accidents.
