Four in five UK internet users admit to feeling unsafe sharing their mobile phone number via the contact areas of social networking sites such as; Facebook, Bebo and MySpace. Nearly 80% of all respondents in a recent Mobyko.com survey stated they would not publicise their own number in this manner. The findings reveal the reason behind this growing trend of cautiousness - is the innate lack of trust relating specifically to the people within an individual's online social network.
