DEAR MS B-FIVE THINGS
now ms b i know you dont have a facebook account
but maybe one day you will
well maybe you shouldnt ever have one of those things
who knows what will be there when you get old enough
to have one
my brain couldnt even imagine what that would be
thinking back to when i was your age
no
theres no way i could have imagined all this electronic stuff
that kids have access to
sometimes for the good
sometimes though for the bad
now ms b
i read kim komando every day
she is the computer goddess
today she wrote about 5 things
to not give facebook about yourself
now you remember these ok
one
your phone number
they keep asking but i just ignore them
dont put your phone number on your posting anywhere
theres too many crazies out there
heck we all get so many trash calls anyway
dont help them find you
they dont have mine
two
your home address
now that one should be a no brainer right
but its done all the time
they dont have mine
three
anything work related
see that all the time
lots of folks done got fired cuz of this
im retired so no work related stuff for me
just volunteer stuff
four
your relationship status
oops i write your gma as my wife she all the time
five
your birthday
oops again
extra
dont give them your finacial info so you can buy
stuff on facebook
didnt do this one
you can imagine what happens if a scammer gets a hold of all
this information
what havoc they would do on you and your families lives
heres is the link to her posting today to read more
now
just think about this
next time you start doing all this
now
i talked to a guy who works for a large company that is involved
with internet security
he does not have facebook
doesnt put pictures anywhere online of his family
he said
you would be shocked at how much the government
and private industry and crooks can find out about you
how much they have access to
well they already know most of it
so
ms b
i dont want you to have a cell phone
or ever get on the internet
ok
the organicgreen doctor
