As kids head back to school, parents may be looking to grab that perfect back to school photo to remember the day. 

However, Alberta RCMP encourages parents not to post too much information online. Posting information such as their names, age, what grade they are going in and who their teacher is makes it easier for predators and scammers to access that information. 

Although taking those sorts of photos may be a great way to remember the year, posting them online can encourage predators to use that information for their advantage.
