I despise them as much as the next queer liberal but it isn't just the vile boomers falling for this. Keep an eye on your grandparents, maybe sit down and explain the more common scams and tell them to call you if they get something weird. No banking info over phones, etc.

Did I stutter? Protecting your family is protecting your family, now fetch the jumper cables and a lightning rod, we've got some identity theft to thwart.

those goddamn fucking fake UPS emails

I have never used UPS in my fucking life

every day another unread 19 in the spam folder

like, I didn't click the shady link the first 4812 times

Why would I click it on the 4813rd email?

I like to click on phishing links and send them messages in the password section. Hopfully they find it entertaining.

All fun and games until your company does a fake phishing campaign and you get signed up to cyber security training because you clicked on every email

Receives email invite to cyber security training

Email: "RSVP for Meeting"

Looks around suspiciously, then selects NO

For real though, I don't do this...often. I'd laugh if I ended up getting signed up for one of these though. My institution isn't that advanced on their IT front yet.

You’ll notice for my screenshot, I didn’t even click on it.

I feel sorry for anyone who falls for one of those.
