If you have a birthday on Facebook, you will get the chance to hack into account
The Facebook era is going on. Facebook users now post their friend or friend's birthday wishes on Facebook. Many people wrote Happy Birthday or comments. But experts say, giving birth to a birthday on Facebook means calling your own danger. Misleading people can capture your account information from a general and silly post. In a recent study, the information came out. The information was provided by a UK-based tabloid magazine The Sun.
According to The Sun's report, recent studies say that when a friend is greeted with a Facebook birthday, Facebook account increases the risk of being hacked and stealing personal information. In addition to silly greeting posts, along with other Facebook posts, cyber miscreants can capture enough information and then use them to find sensitive information.
This information is available in a survey of a significant number of people aged 16 to 25 years in the UK. It has been found that 83 percent of the online users share additional information that can easily identify a friend or person. The person who posted this type of additional amount is easily identified on Facebook. They are constantly posting Facebook and can not maintain their privacy. Posting on Facebook, additional posters post many related topics such as relation status, health related information, political perspectives, holiday activities. It has the advantage of being able to monitor the poster for the miscreants. It can fall into the safety of the home.
In addition, 56 percent of the people share their current status on Facebook. Such important information becomes important for hackers. Many accounts were hacked. 25 percent of those surveyed said they had hacked their account after clicking the fake link. Once the account is hacked, then all the information goes away to the miscreants.
According to the British Mutual Fundamental Institution Nationwide Building Society, privacy settings are the highest, but there is no profit at all. After hacking, miscreants use bank information or other sensitive information. Like 11 percent of hacking victims, after account hack, the miscreants have taken money from themselves or friends. In addition, fake accounts opened in their name.
Nationwide expert Stuart Skinner said social media is a great way to communicate with people. However, it is important to think about any information being shared. Think about the information that might not be unaffected.
Tip:
- Refrain from clicking on any link sent to friends or close ones. If there is any doubt then be sure to source it.
- Do not share any information or any sensitive information about the bank in Facebook or Messenger. If you think it's private, once it is hacked, it will be unstoppable.
- Determine who will see your posting in the privacy settings.
- Do not accept unrecognized friend without verifying the request.
- See the list of friends at a time. Review their issues with those who are less or almost unreliable.
- Be aware of how much personal information will be posted on Facebook. It is important to be especially careful about providing birthday, birthday and other personal information.
- When you are at home and when you are outside, think before tagging such information on Facebook. When the house is empty, it is better to not tell the information to the miscreants.
- It will be logical to not give all information on Facebook before going out on vacation.
