Why You Should Delete Yik Yak Accounts You No Longer Use
Inactive accounts should be deleted due to the risk of personal information getting out when you don't want it to. Each account you have has information on you, and you may not necessarily want an old unused account to keep that information. Especially when it comes to accounts like Amazon, which has your mailing address or credit card, it's usually best to delete these unused accounts. Other information that may be linked to your inactive accounts may be:
- Mailing Address
- Credit Card Information
- Full Name
- Date of Birth
- Social Security Number
Each of these pieces of information should remain private when it comes to services you no longer use. Protect your privacy simply by deleting any old accounts you no longer use.
Some of the most concerning accounts that have a lot of private information may include:
Every account you have, if left unused, should be deleted to help preserve your information. Not only that, but you're sure to find that without all of these accounts, you're less likely to receive spam emails that will clutter up your inboxes.
