Coronation Street viewers are a little concerned, after Max Turner was seen speaking to someone online.
Max has taken a liking to newcomer Sonya, who he and his new school friends have been hanging around with.
The teenager began messaging Sonya online in the latest episode of the ITV soap, and soon they began to flirt.
Viewers cringed as Max bigged himself up before Sonya agreed to go on a date with him, with him clearly thrilled.
But as the written messages continued to flow, shortly after Max was hanging out with the group, fans came up with a worrying observation.
After the boys he was with seemed to be winding him up, they questioned if these same characters were actually pranking him, with or without the help of Sonya.
As the messages went on, viewers believed there was no proof he was even talking to the girl, and perhaps Max was being duped.
While many believed the boys were pranking him, others predicted it could literally be anyone Max could be talking to.
Either way, viewers guessed it wasn't going to end well as they took to Twitter with their theories.
One viewer said: "I think it’s not the girl messaging max it’s one of his 'mates' just a thought."
Another agreed: "Yeah I said the same! And that's why they're saying to keep it quiet," as a third asked: "Who Max is actually messaging?"
A fourth fan commented: "Are we sure Max is talking to a girl and it’s not just his mates winding him up?" which was echoed by another comment that read: "I can see Max getting bullied and been the target of a prank with these new people."
The tweets kept coming too, with another saying: "I think max is getting set up by his so called friends this won’t end well."
