It may seem like a bit of harmless fun to post your senior picture on Facebook along with the name of your school and the year you graduated, but the Better Business Bureau is warning people about a scam revolving around that.
Scammers or hackers who surf through social media sites will see these Hashtag Class of 2021 posts, and will now have the name of your high school and graduation year, which are common online security questions.
All it takes is an internet search to reveal more information about you, such as family members, your real name, birth date, or even where you live. Better Business Bureau (BBB) cautions everyone to be aware of what they are sharing.
Even if you think it’s just going to your friends, it could also be going somewhere else.
