Share only with people you know

Although many users seek to establish as many contacts on social networks as possible, consider sharing personal information only with people you know. If you expand your contacts beyond people you are sure you can trust, check the service’s settings to see if you can group your contacts and assign different levels of access based on your comfort level. Attackers may adopt different identities to try to convince users to add them as contacts, so try to confirm that contacts are who they claim to be before giving them access to your information.
