Thinking of telling some fairy tales to your boss?

As President Obama warns children of the dangers of posting on open social networking sites, here’s my favorite example of where an adult got caught out because he was tagged within another persons photos on facebook!

Fibs told by Anglo Irish Bank intern Kevin Colvin to his boss backfired after Kevin excused himself with the good old “something came up at home” necessitating the need to immediately return to New York. Unfortunately it became abundantly clear that this was no major family emergency when his boss found a tagged Facebook photo of Colvin at a Halloween party wearing a fairy outfit and holding a can of beer.

It’s obvious that Obama’s advice shouldn’t just be reserved for the children… watch out that you’re not being tagged within other peoples photos on open social networking sites!
