  1. If you don’t recognize it, don’t open it.

  2. Don’t answer calls from unknown numbers.

  3. Don’t open texts from unknown numbers

  4. Don’t open emails from unknown addresses.

I Ihave Two Sons and a long time friend all working Cyber Security and they all preach these four things.

Just don’t do it.

And remember this Boyz N Gyrls : ‘If you accidently delete an e-mail or not answer a phone call because you don’t recognize the number (containing Bank Info or messages from your Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief) The REAL ONE’S won’t be OFFENDED in these wacky times and they will just RESEND IT! No Harm No Foul. My Insurance guy had a New Staffer send me my (6) month renewal Bill on a Car. It wasn’t the Insurance Company E-mail it was her own business e-mail she hadn’t received her ‘Official’ e-mail yet so I deleted it. I check all the time when VISA, Cell Phone etc bills usually come in and CALLED them. They looked into it and that’s what they found (I was on Auto pay anyway no jeopardy of being Late Fee’d) but we straightened it out. Another is in a Job Search some A-Holes want you to put your Social Security # or Drivers License BEFORE they even consider you for employment. You don’t want to work for somebody that wants THAT in advance! Oh! so you want my Bank Routing Number and Account number also? SURE! Ijit’s!
Just like ‘YOU ARE YOUR OWN FIRST RESPONDER’

‘You are the ONLY one in charge of your Personal DATA! They are already Data Mining us and we don’t even see it most times, Selling our information to others for PROFIT! Getting to be an UNHEALTHY WORLD OUT THERE!

HOLD THE LINE!

UPDATE: It’s not just in da ‘Yoop!’ Blood. The ‘Q’ (Albuquerque not Donald Trump) :rofl:

Is currently being bombarded w/ Medicaid/Medicare scams. Not just us but folk’s we know not (3rd party through a silly ‘Next Door’ grapevine are saying they are ‘Simply’ asking for the Member Numbers and sometimes the Social Security Numbers to ‘VERIFY’ their accounts so—’WAIT FOR IT’ THEY DON’T GET SCAMMED! Folk’s on Next door are asking ‘Did I do the right thing giving them my info ? (After the fact)—–SHEESH-A-MEESH! PEOPLE! WAKE UP! Did you WIN Publisher’s Clearing House also? (now defunct!)

Just GOT A NEW ONE ‘USCCA WIN A GUN—YOU WON! MUST BE A SCAM! muahahahahahahahahahah!
