GOLDEN RULES HOW TO STAY SAFE

Tighten privacy settings on your social media accounts so only your friends can see what you post.

Be wary of who you connect with, especially on professional networking sites such as Linkedin.

Think about what you share about your (or your friends’) children on birthdays.

Be aware of the partial details you share across social networks as fraudsters can piece these together.

Have a “spring clean” of old social media posts and delete anything that seems suspect.
