Popular social networking sites, such as Facebook and MySpace, have become all the rage in recent years. And while they are undoubtedly a great way to connect with friends you probably forgot about years ago, they have also become an increasingly popular target for identity thieves who want to gain access to your personal information.
Always remember to be cautious with the information you share on social networking sites! You can enjoy the benefits of the service without divulging your home address, phone number, or social security number, so there is absolutely no reason to make this information accessible to hackers. Also, be sure to access your accounts and set the privacy settings to a level that is acceptable to you. Default privacy settings are often too liberal and favor the sharing of unnecessary personal information.
