your real one, then that may not be a problem. On the other hand, if you’re the
sort of person who likes to keep your former virtual lovers away from your reallife
front door, the following tips can save you a lot of future headaches.
· If you give someone your phone number, a reverse telephone number
search may reveal your real name, address, and even the names of the
other people living at that address with you, including possibly your
children. That information isn’t always available for free, but you should

the required $3 to purchase the information.
· If you send someone your photograph, a reverse photo search can be
done on websites like Google or Tineye. These reverse photo searches
could lead someone to your Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Tumblr, or other
social media websites that contain sensitive personal information about
you. It can sometimes even send a snoop directly to your employer’s
website if your photo appears anywhere on the website.
· Practically every photograph contains embedded, hidden meta
information called EXIF data. Using an EXIF data reader can reveal this
information. EXIF data can include not only information about the camera
used to take the photo, but sometimes, even the exact latitude and
longitude where the photo was taken. In other words, if the photo was
taken at your home, you may have just unknowingly handed someone your
home address.
· Giving someone your email address may seem like a perfectly safe
thing to do, until you realize that Googling an email address can reveal a
wealth of information about you that you never even knew existed. Think
of all the times you’ve been asked to leave your name and email address in
order to purchase something, leave a comment, post on social media,
generate forum messages, ask questions online, or submit technical
support trouble tickets. Eventually, a determined snoop will find
something that has both your email address and your real full name on it,
and the rest is easy.
· Every internet connection you make originates from a unique internet
protocol (IP) address. Most of the websites and online applications that
you use will automatically record your IP address when you connect to
