TULSA - Do not post pictures of your credit or debit cards on social networking sites; or anywhere online.
Yes people post pictures of their credit or debit cards showing their full name and all the digits.
People sharing the folly of this type of over-sharing sometimes re-tweet, or upload the information to other sites.
At that point we see some people taking the hint and taking the information down while others just leave it there for the world to see.
Other sites share cringe-worthy posts pointing out why it may be a very bad idea to rant about how much you hate your job, publicizing how hungover you are or what drugs you're doing right now.
Of course the solution is pretty simple: You can simply keep your private information private.
