Consumer Reports: Social Networking Poses Serious Risks

Consumer Reports says that social networks are making it easier for crooks to victimize you, steal your identity, harass you and kick sand in your face at the beach.


In case you aren't already convinced, what you post on your favorite social network could come back to haunt you -- in the form of cybercrime victimization. In fact, 9 percent of social network users experienced some form of abuse within the past year, such as malware infections, scams, identity theft or harassment, according to Consumer Reports.
