As you may have heard there has been several reports of "so-called" Facebook friends using information gathered on Facebook to target homes for burglaries.
According to several local news outlets in Nashua, N.H., police say they've arrested three young men allegedly responsible for about 50 burglaries in the city last month. It is believed that the suspects "used social-networking sites such as Facebook to identify victims who posted online that they would not be home at a certain time."
It may be better to treat your social network site as you would a distant relative and not a bosum buddy. Share but be careful how much! It's always been sort of amusing to me on how much we value and trust our "friends" on Facebook,when we know that in real life some of them don't even "like" us!
So my final word of caution,before divulging all of your who,what,when, and where on social networking sites,ask yourself the question WHY should I even post this?! In conclusion,don't forget to share this with all your friends.....
