Best way to deal with introducing things you don't understand to your child is through teaching skills to deal with unknown and uncomfortable situations!

The majority of kids are going online without any guidance, and the majority of kids are going to turn out fine. If you want to hedge your bets, give her some knowledge about the types of scams she might encounter, and the type of people she needs to be wary of.

Your awareness of the situation makes me think you'll do a great job, for what it counts :)
