• Falling for the scams

    So I got this text a little bit ago and figured it was a scam. But what sort of scam I wondered. Went online to search and sure enough… it’s a scam.

    But look at this… it’s a “pay us, get money out of you scam” they’ve been doing this since 2013!!!! Why are we still falling for this stuff this number of years later? Why can the bad guys still get money from us?

    Then again, the city where I live, the local government fell for a scam so clearly we’re got getting any smarter at all.
