FIVE ESSENTIAL POINTS TO CONSIDER FOR OUR SECURITY BEFORE WE SHARE ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Friends, before we share anything on Social Media we have to think twice! Prevention is the best method. 
Here are five key points to help you avoid dangerous situations !! 

1.If our date of birth is publicly posted on Facebook, there are various risks. We may feel good seeing dozens of 
"friends" wish us for our birthdays, but at the same time we give joy to any charity who can falsify with all the
 information we generously give him (date of birth, name, profile photo etc). ), our various personal documents, 
(from driver's license up to our passport).
 
2. At Home or Alone - One of our worst but everyday mistakes is to make public that we are alone at home. The risk 
may be minimal, but it always stays.
 
3. Where We Are - Publishing our every move, accompanied by photos, is also one of the many mistakes we make. We
give every criminal and lucrative useful information.
 
4. Our Marital Status - For each malignant the word 'Free' or 'Single' acts as a magnet, as well as when we change 
our marital status from 'married' or to 'free', those who follow it automatically our profile and other motives, they realize 
that we are in a "vulnerable position". 

5.Photos of Our Kids - Perhaps the biggest mistake anyone can make on Social Media is to upload photos of their 
children. The risks are enormous, we will just list one to reflect on all of us. Every photo of a child on Facebook and 
in general on the Internet is a candidate for use by various pedagogical circuits. Every photo of a child who is 
uploading is a candidate for technical editing so that the child appears naked on illegal pedagogy websites. Thinking
of the above alone should be a deterrent for all of us.
