BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE INFO YOU PUT ON YOUR PROFILE. I watched an episode of watchdog on TV last week, two guys who had put their details on Face Book agreed to a computer fraud expert see what he could do with the info they had put about themselves in their profile. They had both given their real names, date of birth and the district where they live. From this he was able to find out their home address and their birth certificate details, which gave him their mothers maiden name something which is used a lot for passwords with banks. He was able to open a bank account in their names on line. The advice was, if you join any of these contact websites don't give to much info about yourself. Stay safe it's a big www out there!
