Don’t rob me! I’m just being social.

You may think you’re suave with your Twitter and your Foursquare (we think you are too), but the criminals out there are thanking you for promising them that you will not be home.

Welcome to the criminal world of Twitter and Foursquare… a lethal combination of not only Tweeting that you’re away, but then verifying it by checking in with Foursquare.

No need to scope your home and identify your daily routine for optimum break-in times. These social criminals are being provided with the necessary information — by you.

Care for examples? Check out the Please Rob Me site.
