Public Service Announcement

I know there are a lot of Foursquare fans on Tumblr.  I recently saw a story about how some nefarious nincompoops are using Foursquare to target people.  What happens is this: the bad guys track when and where people are “checking in.”  They then look up their address and rob the unsuspecting Foursquare fan’s house. 

I haven’t used Fourquare myself, so perhaps there are some security features that make this practice less probable than it sounds. But it’s worth considering.  Be careful out there….
