If you didn't realize this already, take note: Bragging about your big pile of cash on Facebook isn't a great idea.

A 17-year-old Australian girl learned this lesson the hard way last Thursday when she posted a picture of some money on Facebook. The girl was helping her grandmother count the loot and couldn't help sharing that information with her online friends.

The status update apparently prompted two armed masked would-be robbers to try to visit the girl's house, but, because of some faulty information, hit her mother's house instead and made off with a smaller pile of cash. No one was injured.
