O<\/span>ne of the best things about social media<\/em> sites like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter is the ability to quickly post all of your photos so that your friends and family can admire them.<\/p>\n

Those same pictures can also make you an easy and attractive target to anyone who is looking for a home to break into.<\/p>\n

The problem with posting vacation pictures on your social media account is that if you\u2019re posting those pictures while you\u2019re still on vacation, you are literally telling any would-be burglar that your house is standing empty. This is especially true if you happen to answer a question about how long you\u2019re going to be gone.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t assume that posting vacation pictures<\/a> is the only way you can get into trouble. The same is true if you make a comment about waiting for a flight, discuss an out-of-town business trip, or even a routine lunch date. Most importantly, don\u2019t take advantage of the option some social media sites provide allow you to share your precise location with all of your friends and family.<\/p>\n

Most people feel comfortable sharing vacation photos on social media accounts because they reason that they are all friends and that their friends would never steal from them. But take a moment to go through your current friend’s list. How many of those people do you really know and how many are people who you\u2019ve simply met a few times at different events or through other friends? <\/p>\n

The first thing you should do is change your account settings so that the only people who can see your posts are your friends and family. If you also use social media for a business, then create a separate account for your business and make sure you don\u2019t include any of your travel plans on it.<\/p>\n

The next thing you need to do is refrain from sharing information<\/a> about vacation plans, weekend getaways, and more on social media. When it comes to posting the pictures, wait until you get home. When you do decide it\u2019s time to post those holiday snaps, make it very clear that you\u2019re already home and that life has returned to normal.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t assume that just because you\u2019re not actively posting your vacation photos while you\u2019re away from home that you don\u2019t have to worry. Make it very clear to anyone you\u2019re traveling with that you don\u2019t want to be tagged in any of their vacation photos.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
