All of these answers are correct. When having an online presence, individuals should be wary of:

1. **"Checked-in" status updates:** These can be used by individuals with malicious intent to track someone's whereabouts, which can lead to stalking.

2. **Timing of break-ins:** Publicly sharing location details can provide information on when a person is away from home, making it easier for someone to plan a burglary.

3. **Personal information exposure:** Sharing sensitive information like full names, phone numbers, and other identifying details can lead to identity theft.

It's essential to be cautious about what you share and who can see your information online.
