Private information - show some respect guys

[Bird]

There are social engineers around the internet that with JUST their facebook page, they could find so much information about them, they could end up finding passwords just from things about them.

Here's how they would do it.
1. Learn the person inside and out from their facebook
2. Do forgot passwords for all their sites in hopes of finding relevant questions
3. Get lucky and find 1 password.
4. Guess the rest
5. Bank accounts hacked
6. Financial Ruin

Ive seen it tons of times and know people like this who would do such a dastardly thing. Never let someone you don't know into a personal portal. Or Never post or share anything personal. Simple.

Or you could just, you know, use two factor authentication and different passwords for everything you wouldn't be devastated to lose, and be smart about any recovery questions.
