VIDEO: Be warned! Your child could get abducted in seconds

An American man made a frightening video that went viral on YouTube on child abduction.

He sets out to see how easy it is for a stranger to get a young child to walk away with him.

And the bait? A cute, fluffy white dog.

The results are a must-see for all parents.

A warning goes out to parents to instruct their children that talking to strangers is taboo.

Even those with cute, fluffy dogs.

Letaba Herald asked 5-year old, Lily Breedenham if she would walk off with a stranger and a little dog.

Her reaction:  a big smile and a definite yes!

Magda de Jager, mom of 7-year old Carlise, said her daughter would walk off with the stranger, especially if he/she had cute animals, without a doubt.

The reality is that children are naive and innocent. Warn yours today.

Remember, looks can be deceiving. Strangers look like you and me.

This video shows just how easily a child can get abducted:
