Someone I know went on a social networking site and made disparaging remarks about her boss, who had just been notified her position was being eliminated.
Guess who else lose their job?
Someone else I know received an email from her bank stating her account had been frozen and she needed to respond with her information to release it. Which she promptly did.
Guess who now needs a new account, new direct deposit info, a new debit card, and has to reorganize her online bill-paying?
I will thoroughly admit to jumping the gun on multiple occasions, but even I know enough to refrain from being anything less than complementary online to people I know, and to delete phishing emails. Things you do online can (and frequently do) come back to bite you if you're rude, crude, a smart-ass, racist, xenophobic, homophobic, liberal, conservative, libertarian, communist, or just a jackass.
Just ask ESPN contributor Paul Shirley.
Make that former ESPN contributor Paul Shirley.
