Tips to Play Safe on Facebook

-
You probably have a facebook account. If you don't, then chances are that your child does.
Facebook can be an excellent way to interact with your friends and co-workers, as well as keep your family updated on what is going on in your life. You can post family vacation pictures, send emails, and “chat” with people that live far away.
Better yet, you can do all of this for free! However, there are some risks associated with internet security when it comes to Facebook. Luckily, Facebook is aware of these internet security risks. There are actually somethings that you can do to help protect yourself.

The following is a list of 5 tips that you can use to make sure that you are safe when using Facebok.
1. Make your profile private: You can do this in a number of ways. You can make it so that only your friends can see your information and photos, or you can make it so that people can see your name and information but not your photos or wall unless you add them as a friend.
Check this out under your “privacy settings”tap on your account.

2. Block people that you don't want to see your information: There is a choice under their photograph that will allow you to block them. When you do this, you will not show up on a search that they do and they will not see anything having to do with your account. It will be as though you do not exist to this person. This is a good feature is someone specifically is bothering you.

3. Report cyber stalking or harassment: If you choose to block someone, a window will pop up asking you the reason. One of the choices is cyber stalking. Choose this option if it is true. It won't stop if people don't report it.

4. Only add people that you know: This will help your internet security tremendously. Having 300 or more friends just so that you can say you have a lot of them is not a good reason for continuing to add people.

5. Don't purchase anything via Facebook: Many applications cost money. Ignore these and use the multitude of free things that the site offers. You don't want your financial information to be compromised just because you send someone a picture of a birthday cake.
