What Not To Post On Facebook: 13 Things You Shouldnt Tell Your Facebook Friends

The 13 things you shouldnt tell your facebook friends are....

1. Your Birth Date And Place
2. Your Mother's Maiden Name
3. Your Home Address
4. Your Long Trips Away From Home
5. Your Short Trips Away From Home
6. Your Inappropriate Photos
7. Confessionals
8. Your Phone Number
9. Your Vacation Countdown
10. Your Child's Name
11. Your 'Risky' Behavior
12. The Layout Of Your Home
13. Your Profile On Public Search

I agree with these 13 things that you should post. For #1 you should not tell people your birth place and date because this is important information that could be used to recover more information about you. Giving out your mothers maiden name is also giving away an important piece of information because a lot of security questions for certain accounts ask the question "What is you mother's maiden name?". Giving away your home address gives anyone the opportunity to use that information for bad use, such as robbing your house. When you let everyone know on facebook that you are taking a long trip away from home it is pretty much letting robbers know that they have the chance to go rob your house. Letting people know you are taking short trips away from also give robbers the opportunity to break into your house, but just with a smaller window to do it. Inappropriate photos could prevent you from getting a certain job that you want in the future, or it could get you in serious trouble. Confessionals could be really bad fro you because, for example, if you post that "I faked being sick today and skipped work" and your boss sees it, you would probably get fired from your job. Other posts confessing things could also get you in a lot of trouble. If you share your phone number on facebook, anyone with that information could call you. Posting your vacation countdown is the same as letting robbers know when they can break into your house. If you post your child's name on facebook gives identity thieves chances to steal children's identities. If you insurance company find out about your risky behavior, they might not want to cover you anymore. Revealing the layout of your home to a potential thief is not a good idea. If you allow people to see you profile on a public search gives any one with a facebook account to access your personal information. These 13 things you shouldn't do on facebook are very important and I believe that everyone on facebook should listen to these ideas.
