because people out there are predators who will use your image to find information about you in google, use the image and impersonate you, trap friends and loved ones online... use the image to create accounts, slander, stalk and blackmail.

those who go on about fakes too often are the first i suspect.

@NewKidInTown: Yep. I don't send my pic any more. Too risky.

@Lakesidepoet: and they were able to track your information from your pic?
SW-User
@NewKidInTown: They used my pic to create fake accounts. I'm still not sure what info they have or don't...but it has been a very disconcerting experience.

@Lakesidepoet: No kidding. And them having to explain it to your family! Ugh. Awful.
Sorry.
