    Social Networking , Anonymous Email Services, Telephone Booths, Cyber Cafes, Voip phones are serious threat to the public and for the country. Slowly all will realize how dangerous these technologies and we need to create lots of awareness with the public. Especially our kids must know the pros and cons of these technologies. In the above case someone misused poor girls name and created face book account.. However most of them do not know that, millions of pictures used in Facebook profiles are utilized by illegal sites for creating illegal sites, illegal passports, credit cards in different countries!!! We must be careful when we allow others to access our personal details, pictures... Keep your family and friends privacy away from these sites if you really care for them.
