Know what youve posted about yourself

A common way that hackers break into financial or other accounts is by clicking the Forgot your password? link on the account login page. To break into your account, they search for the answers to your security questions, such as your birthday, hometown, high school class, fathers middle name, on your social networking site. If the site allows, make up your own password questions, and dont draw them from material anyone could find with a quick search.
