Police warn parents about 'school photo' trend of oversharing on social media
Revealing too much about kids can make them targets of predators, as a viral photo by law enforcement shows
As students adjust to returning to school this fall, law enforcement members and online safety experts are reminding parents to be cautious about the information they share on social media. It may give predators access to children and scammers access to personal information.
"We’re not saying not to share," Deputy Sheriff Tim Creighton of the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office in Woodstock, Illinois, recently told Fox News Digital.
"I have people to this day on my feeds. They are sharing way too much information."
