Identity Theft Check

The popularity of sites such as Facebook and Twitter are at an all time high, and millions of users log on every day to catch up with friends and let the world know what they are up to.

However, as with most popular things, there is always somebody who wants to come along and spoil all of your fun, and social networking sites are no different.

When you sign up to these sites, you’re often asked to fill in lengthy forms, full of your personal information. Whilst the owners of these sites do their utmost to protect you, you also need to protect yourself.

You should make sure that you never have your full birthday showing, and also never log in to any applications which ask you for personal information- as you never know who it is going to.

Be a little more aware of the information that you display on these sites and you don’t have to let your fun get spoilt!
