Man blames burglary at Arizona home on Twitter messages - Telegraph
Israel Hyman posted that he and his wife were "preparing to head out of town," that they had "another 10 hours of driving ahead" and later, that they "made it to Kansas City."
But when Hyman, who has approximately 2,000 followers on Twitter, came home, he found that someone had broken into his house.
Thousands of dollars worth of video equipment, which he used for his video business, IzzyVideo.com, had been stolen.
"My wife thinks it could be a random thing, but I just have my suspicions," he said. "They didn't take any of our normal consumer electronics.
"Did I really want to tell the world that I was out of town? Because the card in my camera automatically added location data to my photos, anyone who cared to look at my Flickr page could see my computers, my spendy bicycle, and my large flatscreen TV all pinpointed on an online photo map.
"Hell, with a few clicks you could get driving directions right to my place--and with a few more you could get black gloves and a lock pick delivered to your home."
