Use common sense and only meet once you have exchanged enough emails to make you feel comfortable. I usually emailed for a week or two, sometimes longer, depending on the person, before I met up with anyone. I also found that its MUCH safer to use site you pay for because only those who are subscribed and only those with a subscription can email you back and forth. A subscription helps add some legitimacy to them because they need a credit card to subscribe and that creates a paper trail. Pay sites also allow you to interact without ever revealing your email address, so if you want to end it, you can right away and with no way for the other party to contact you.
