Social media has become incredibly popular. Many people have accounts on sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, or LinkedIn, and many share information, photos, and other things with their friends through these sites. But they may not realize how much they’re sharing or that strangers can access some of this information. In fact, some people never think to apply some of the basics of online identity theft prevention to their social media posts and profiles. It’s important to realize that, even if you have restricted your posts to certain people, it may be possible that others can see and access some of your information and use it to steal your identity.
