    Summary:

    Your online identity is quickly becoming  more crucial to your personal and professional success than in-person communication. But most of us don't understand this digital Wild West and the dangers that lurk around every corner. Most of us are unaware of the digital breadcrumbs that we leave behind with every post, and how easy it is for a person with malicious intent to harm us. Catching the Catfishers is for every user of social media, teaching you how to:

    • Safely and successfully navigate the online world.
    • Protect yourself and your children from online predators, cyber-stalkers and chat-room bullies.
    • Detect if someone is not who he or she claims to be.
    • Learn what digital breadcrumbs you leave behind and how to clean them up.
    • Control your own online identity.
    • Use social media to find the right relationship, employee or anything else you are looking for.
