Be careful what you post on social networks ! According to a study conducted by Kiwatch , a video surveillance company, with Facebook , Twitter and other social networks, it is now easier for burglars to know our actions and especially if the path is free to come in any tranquility in a dwelling for the burglary. According to the same study, women would take more risks on social networks than men.
- Of the 6,250 French people interviewed by Kiwatch, 95% of women recognize that they post photos of their travels and outings on social networks, compared to 53% of men .
- Worse still, 66% of the women indicate on their profile that they go on vacation against only 9% of the men .
A risky practice that does not seem to worry more than the respondents since 71% of them do not think that burglars can learn about the social networks of their absence. Men are a bit more aware (or maybe more paranoid) of the drifts of the net since 96% have already thought of this possibility.
Since 2012 , burglaries have increased by 18% in France . A figure clearly linked to the explosion of social networks . In order not to find his house or apartment ransacked at the end of the holidays, it is better to avoid posting his life on Facebook and especially, we think to privately put our profile to prevent the whole Earth can access it.
