For me l was taking the issue of adding the real avatar on the social and forum sites very lightly. However it's a very nice thing to add your real photos on these sites as it portrays some seriousness in you.
What is your take?

Earlier I used my real photo on myLot. And then I got some Private messages where they felt that I looked good and they wanted to befriend me . One message sounded creepy too. I don't want to befriend everyone on social media. From then onwards, I have not used my real photo on any forum platforms.I would even like to upload a real photo, maybe someone will like me and be able to make friends, but I don't even have such photos to post on the Internet.
That is a very nice practice. I follow the same. I don't send friend's request to someone anonymous unless I know who the person is through other means. Same is followed for accepting someone as friend. Social media accounts are quite vulnerable. I have private setting for my account and I only allow people who are in my friends list to view what I have posted. I am careful while sending any friends request or accepting one.Yes I do, I use my real photo and real name
. And I don't accept friend requests from people without real names and picture.

Yes, even while accepting common friends in our friends list, we should be careful. Recently I have watched Crime Patrol show, that is based on true stories of crime. It was shocking to see how much social media platforms can make us vulnerable to these crime traps. We can be trapped for such crimesI am very careful when accepting requests. The person must be personally known by me and I know the whereabouts like job, home good if we have common friends
There are so many hackers and scammers on social media, let's just be vigilant.Yes, even while accepting common friends in our friends list, we should be careful.

Very true! One has to be really careful. With advancements in technology, the crime rate especially of cyber crime is also on rise.There are so many hackers and scammers on social media, let's just be vigilant.
That's so true. We have seen so many cases of deep fake photos and videos reported recently.On some sites I have uploaded my real photo. I know some people have a fear that their picture may be misused if they upload it.
