Mainers, We Need To Stop Answering Facebook Quizzes And Memes.
There's always some new scam going online to try and get your information out of you. Hackers and thieves get better and better at it all the time. I got an email sent to my work email this week that looked like it legit came from Google. It was nearly perfect. But it was a recovery notification to an account that didn't exist anymore.
I've gotten pretty good at catching the email ones. They're usually fairly obvious. But there are much more sinister ways of doing it that I'm personally seeing more and more all the time. And frankly, it's a technique that preys on our most vulnerable internet population.... older folks.
