1.Don’t write your personal contact numbers anywhere on Orkut You might wish to give your personal contact details (phone number, email address etc) to someone but avoid posting it in scrapbook as it’s public. You can send it using the “write message” which is private to a user.
2.Avoid uploading your personal photographs in album.
3.Validate person’s identity before you add him/her as your friend .
4.Make sure the testimonial written for you comes from genuine person and the text is ok before you approve it.
5.Although keeping the scrapbook clean is a good habit, but people like to keep the scraps but make sure you delete scraps that contains info you don’t like others to read, contain your personal information, contain friends personal information etc.
6.As cloning and fake profiles are on rise, make sure the profile is genuine before you add him/her as your friend.
7.Some companies may have policies that restricts employees from posting company name or confidential details anywhere on the web, obey them.
8.Don’t just join any community, make sure it’s authentic and you really need it.
9.Last but very important, Don’t run behind the numbers, you are not contesting on orkut, are you? nobody cares for how many friends are there on your list or how many scraps you have or how many communities you have joined. Remember more the number more unsafe you are on the orkut.
