The below link is a story on CBS 11 TV's website. The Secret Service is warning people....yet again...about posting too much personal information on social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter (and all the others).

I would also like to add something to this. The elderly and children are most often targeted. Just because you haven't 'friended' someone doesn't mean they can't get to your information. Be wary. If you have tweens and teens who are getting on these sites, sit down with them and talk about the dangers of posting TOO much information.
Social Networking sites serve as a convenient means of communicating information to lots of people and they can be very useful. Ask yourself this "Can the information I post be used to hurt me or my family?" If you can answer yes...then you may want to re-think posting it on your page.
Be wary my friends.
