Poll: Has your social networking profile ever been hacked?

Social and professional networking sites are a great way of connecting with friends and like minded people. However with so much of our lives spent online, it's easy to lose track of just how much information about you is out there on such sites, which could potentially be used by criminals looking to steal your identity.

Following the news that access to hundreds of thousands of Facebook accounts may have accidentally been leaked because of a flaw in some applications, we ask:

Don't forget - think carefully about adding too much personal information on social networking sites including your date of birth, maiden name, place of birth – this information could be used by a fraudster to commit identity fraud using your personal information.
