During the holidays, it is recommended not to post these 7 types of photos on Moments!

During the National Day holiday, many people are accustomed to sharing their holiday life on social platforms. However, oversharing may bring the risk of privacy leaks!

What content cannot be posted casually? How to protect the security of personal information? Let’s take a look↓↓↓

Be alert! Don’t expose these casually

Photos with location

Posting photos with location information in Moments can easily reveal your address or itinerary, posing security risks.

ID card, passport, driver’s license and other documents

These documents contain important personal privacy, please do not post pictures on the Internet at will.

License plate, traffic certificate, etc.

License plate photos may be obtained by criminals and find out the car owner’s information, triggering telecommunications fraud.

Transportation vouchers such as train tickets and boarding passes contain sensitive information such as ID numbers, and there is a risk of the information being stolen.

銀行卡

Posting photos of the complete bank card number and other card information can easily be stolen by criminals, causing property losses.

Express unboxing pictures or videos

After receiving the express delivery, some people like to take photos or record videos, but the complete unboxing pictures or videos may reveal personal information, leaving an opportunity for criminals.

Information for the elderly and children

Avoid publicly publishing photos and names of the elderly and children to prevent criminals from using this information to carry out illegal activities.

家門鑰匙

Nowadays, photography technology is advanced, and the details in photos are clearly visible. If you post your home keys and the key structure is not complicated, someone with ulterior motives may match the keys based on the photos, threatening your home security.
