[Xers007]

Served these posers right... si mi lan sai also 'pose' on facebook...

 

The family of a 17-year-old girl was robbed after their daughter uploaded a photo of a wad of cash to Facebook.

 

Two men armed with a knife and a wooden club broke into the Bundanoon home in the NSW Southern Highlands last week demanding to speak with the unnamed girl about the cash.

 

The girl had helped her grandmother count her life savings in Sydney when she posted the photo of the undisclosed sum of cash to the social media site.

 

At 11.30pm, seven hours after the photo was uploaded, the men entered the girl

It's believable. There are warnings not to post things like you going for holiday, no one at home, and all that. There are thieves who monitor Facebook to see which house is empty and if they can see your home address, they will break into Yr home

 

You got to set your privacy to the max.

 

Facebook.... Tsk Tsk Tsk.......

When I was counting the money in my piggy bank, I also hid in one corner of the house fearing my wife will find out how much money was in there.

Deactivate the GPS tagging in your phone n camera.

Most likely anyone can pin point your GPS location from the photos, if taken at your residence!!

That is the scary part of modern phone. Once you post a photo of yourself, people who copy the photo can know where it was taken!!
