There are social media posts floating around asking questions such as what your first car was, your first telephone number, your first teacher’s name, etc. While playing along and answering the questions may be fun, it can also be risky.
When you create an online account for online banking, shopping, or other purposes, you will often be asked security questions. The individuals behind social media questionnaires may be engaging in phishing attempts to obtain your information and gain access to your accounts or steal personal information.
