I was cruising into my Facebook page as I do on a regular basis and there I find that someone has posted their birthday. I know that this is not the only person on Facebook that does this. But it is not a good idea in fact it's a very bad idea. Identity thieves are cruising the social media websites all day and all night. They are putting up the bogus websites to impersonate banks and Amazon and eBay. All the silly stuff just to get someone's birthday and may be similar personal information but they don't need much. Next we know is that our bank account has been looted or a credit card has been run up in our name. Every 3 seconds someone's identity is stolen. If you know someone has had their identity taken no nightmare that they have been placed into. All of a sudden the living hell and it's not just the money.it's the time that it takes to restore person's good name and identity. A friend had it happen inadvertently by someone that she trusted. I watched what happened to this person's state of mind as she struggled to get things right in her life.
Wouldn't wish that kind of torment on anyone.
If you are concerned with this fear is one of the may want to look into a solution by following the link I posted on the bottom of this post.
