It was easy and hey, folks could remember the date I popped into the world. What I didn’t think about was that with all of the personal data that is given out on these sites, it makes it very easy for a scammer or identity thief to do their job. This is a brilliant piece that I suggest you peep out from Chris Penn.

I do the same thing but on Facebook they have my real birthday. I'm too attached to the wishes and celebration...and love sending wishes to my FB friends. I'm sure our sentimental ways are leaving us open to exploitation. That's too bad. I enjoy your contribution to Six Pixels/Media Hacks podcast. Thanks! Chris,

Nice one Chris. Very smart. I was wondering too, because I didn't see your birthday listed in Facebook, yet I saw messages wishing you a happy birthday. I was curious what was going on, but not curious enough to research the *real* birthday of Mr. Christopher S. Penn - if that IS your real name! :-) <br><br>I think I'm going to start referring to you as Christopher "Keyser Söze" Penn. Ha! Nice one Chris. Very smart.
