What is exactly being shared?

People should not trust other unless you know them face-to-face. People are using camera-enabled mobile phones to take pictures and images are being cropped before uploading. Images taken with smart phones revealed all your personal details. Metadata often includes geographical coordinates, date and time when images were taken. It is revealing our information to criminals, burglars and so on. Images do not have to be posted on real time. Criminals will also know about you from historical data. As you keep on updating your status, they know where to expect you or your favorite location in a certain time. Mobile phone users should ensure if they are sharing location information. Check options or settings on the phone. It’s always a good idea to give your personal information after knowing what that website exactly do? Before giving any of your personal details make sure you check the websites or company’s terms and conditions.

If you received anything that asks you to provide your financial information do not reply to that email. You could become a victim of identity fraud and those email most of the time looks very official just to make you feel it’s real. Always use a strong password rather than something anyone can guess. It is a good idea to include symbols, letters and numbers in your password. Always remember to logout especially when you shared a computer.
