Staying Safe on Facebook Relationship Site 

Facebook dating can be a safe space if you avoid publicizing and telling people about certain information listed here.

1. Your full name:

Entering your full name on your Facebook dating app is not the best decision; fraudsters can call you using your full name to convince you to send them money for whatever situation they choose to come up with to make the cooked story believable.

2. Financial status:

There may be better decisions than disclosing your financial status to someone you just met on a Facebook relationship site. Keep your financial status confidential if you want to stay safe on Facebook.

3. Residual address:

No matter how much effort anyone puts into asking you for your personal information, including your house address, do not disclose it; instead, be suspicious of such a person and do not share such information with anyone you meet online.

4. Mobile number:

Your mobile number is linked to several critical or essential occasions; sharing your number with just anyone without getting to know the person very well may be challenging.

5. Where you work:

Keep information about your place of work, earnings, and office position private except if such a person has broken through, that is, has proven to be a long-time acquaint and trustworthy, do not disclose such information to anyone you meet online.

6. Other identifying information is probably family members since deceitful people can access you through them.
