- Use Code Generator it is part of the Facebook app. It creates a unique login code every 30 seconds, even when you aren’t connected to the internet, so you always have a code when you need one. If you have login approvals turned on, you can use Code Generator instead of waiting for a text message with your login code.

4. Do not friend with the people you don’t know.

5. Do not over-share and Protect your location.
- Do not share your location, never check-in at home. Probably you don’t want other people to easily know when you’re not at home, so leave this location off your list. Besides, you don’t want most strangers to know where you live in the first place.
- Never check-in at a friend’s or family member’s home. Updating your status with “Hanging out at Tom’s home” might seem like casual fun, but you’re essentially compromising their privacy as if you’d checked in at home.
- Don’t link Facebook to Twitter account. Unlike Facebook, which requires you to be a friend with someone for them to see your updates, Twitter feeds are usually public (although you can set your feed to private as well).
