LinkedIn Profiles are Terrible
Social clubs such as LinkedIn (http://www.linkedin.com) are scary data leaks.
True Story
I had a creditor find me by doing a simple google search and pulling back results from LinkedIn and tailgate websites. An employer can do a simple search and learn everything they want about you — this is a good thing if you have good history! But, this also open the doors for anyone to search on your name and pull back personal information about yourself, such as: your full name, where you work (the physical address). Just imagine someone writes something bad about you, just for no reason (they might not even know you) — then the negative comments can potentially follow your career for years to come. What will you do? This is what I had to ask myself, what do I do?
I logged into my LinkedIn account and changed the settings to not publish my profile in web searches.
By default, your profile is included in web searches without any regard of who is searching on you, this is an unhealthy safety hazzard, because personal data about you is contained within those pages. Opening the door when opportunity knocks is a good thing! But leaving the door wide open is NOT!
I call it Quality Control …
This is scary! I never even knew that was possible.
Thanks for pointing that out, I never heard of tat on other internet resources including the freedom business system
