Re:What can anyone find out about you online? - 2006/10/09 13:17 Before you get too concerned, check out Snope's page on this topic:

It appears that it is mostly true, but perhaps not as a big a threat as it may seem.

In this day and age we do have to be very careful what information we put out there, though! One thing I've noticed people doing on myspace and in emailed surveys is giving information like their street name, maiden name, middle name, or even mother's maiden name. These are bits and pieces of info that may seem harmless by themselves, but could, if put together, allow someone to pinpoint your location or steal your identity.
