Social Media Safety Tips

Fraud Prevention

Stay Safe on Social Media! 

As a way to pass time, Facebook surveys have been going around that ask people to post their responses to questions about favorite food, maiden name, first car, etc. As fun as this may seem, these questions and answers are also typical online account security prompts. Hackers and fraudsters could easily use your answers to these fun surveys to hack into your online accounts which is why we wanted to warn you to be cautious when posting seemingly harmless personal information online! The same goes for online Facebook quizzes! Typically when you take a Facebook quiz, you are required to give full account permissions to the creator. This allows an easy entry way for hackers to access all of your personal account information. More information on social media scams can be found HERE.
