⚠️Social Media Privacy and Misinformation Prevention⚠️

Typical Risks of Social Media

• Overexposure of Privacy
  Disclosing home addresses, phone numbers, identification documents, or real-time schedules may allow criminals to obtain personal data or track one’s whereabouts.

• Spread of Misinformation
  Common threatening messages, shocking headlines, or rumors such as “the government is shutting down the internet.” These unverified contents are often widely forwarded, creating panic.

• Phishing Link Scams
  Links such as “Click here to claim your reward” or “Fan page giveaway” may lead to malicious websites or fake official accounts.

Precautions for Safe Social Media Use

• Protecting Privacy
  Avoid disclosing sensitive information and refrain from real-time check-ins.
  Review your privacy settings to ensure that posts are visible to friends only.

• Share Only After Verification
  Do not forward unverified news or messages casually.
  Verify the content through official news sources or fact-checking platforms.

• Be Cautious When Clicking Links
  Do not click on shortened URLs in messages from unknown sources.
  Verify the authenticity of accounts to avoid being scammed.
