A schoolgirl was flashed by a man in the second exposure incident in two days.
The pupil at Meols Cop High School was walking down Forest Road in Southport when a man stopped his car and exposed himself before asking her to join him in the car.
An alert sent to schools across the Sefton Local Authority area said: "One of our female students was approached by a male in a car on Forest Road last night (March 20) who exposed himself and asked her to get into the car.
"The car was an old, red Peugeot. The person is described as an Asian man with black hair and glasses. Police have been informed. "
Merseyside Police said there had been no physical contact with the girl and he made no threats towards her.
Community Sergeant Ian Allum said: “We take reports of suspicious incidents of this nature seriously and information has been passed on to all local patrols and neighbourhood officers.
“The girl walked away from this man and contacted an adult she knew as soon as she could.
“This is exactly the right thing to do. Neighbourhood officers regularly visit schools to work alongside teachers in giving children appropriate stranger danger advice.”
Meols Cop Headteacher David Jones told the ECHO that the school immediately alerted Sefton Council once they were informed of the incident which prompted the safeguarding alert that was sent to schools in the area.
This was the s econd flashing incident in Southport in as many days.
On Tuesday a man flashed two sixth form students from Formby High School near to Redgate shops.
Advice from the school said: ""Where possible children should remain in groups of two or more and keep to main, well lit, roads and pathways when walking to and from school.
"If approached by a stranger students should never divulge any personal information, this includes times and places that they may frequent or names of friends who they are going to meet."

Adding: "If approached by a stranger students should make contact with the nearest point of safety, this could be a shop, a school crossing patrol, a parent or indeed the school itself.
"If approached by a stranger students should inform the police as soon as possible, this will allow for an increased chance of locating the person who may still be in the area.
"Students should use their mobile phone to contact home, school or the police.
"If necessary, students should return to school.
"The above guidelines would also apply if students felt they were being followed to/from home."
