Yep. I knew it was a scam because it would have been 70 in a 30.

This is why we shouldn't let seniors have cellphones. Or teens.

The ICANN in Guangdong that keeps allowing these scammers to operate on love to prey on Canadians. Previous scams include pharma and health care scam sites.

Sadly the people this shit targets and is effective on is the 70+ crowd.
Fuck scammers and I hope they all stub their baby toe daily for life.

I see it in my teenage kids. I was always the IT guru amongst the people I know. But shit changes, and it changes in ways you're just not expecting. We'll all get old and gullible, because the scams that happen won't even be anything we can even understand. That's how it works. May God have mercy on all of us.

The solution is to not talk to people.

90% of scams are social engineering.

Only on Beyond would letting people know about a scam get you roasted.
