There are many documented dangers.

travel plans and itineraries

I read this article on the BBC website a few weeks back that gave me pause for thought.

So suggest you double check that locations and routes given in any itinerary actually exist.

Why would anyone give personal details to any website, unless absolutely mandatory to use, and then, do you really need to use ?

 

Don't know of any website or app, that probably hasn't been hacked yet, and while they all suggest, picking a hard password, and change it frequently.

 

My brokerage, TH Imm, BBL, DTL, and I think that's it, has my personal info.  

 

Google your legal name, if you get any results, that's way too many already.

 

A couple very old sites, which I no longer use, have my 'old' legal name, so useless.  Nothing comes up for my latest legal name.
