Indeed.

Depends on the circumstances here.

Problem:

If it relates to a small boy in potentially dangerous surroundings, the meaning could be "Please watch over him." (But one would rather say "Pass mal (bitte) auf ihn auf!")

If it relates to a person with ill intend, the meaning could be "Take care, that guy could try to harm you!"

As I expect the latter to be your intended meaning I agree with Billi.

Yes, it does. Thanks.

Google made a mess of it ... maybe because it was too short.
