    Seems like a good idea to put that there. People who know what they’re doing won’t be bothered by it, but it might save a few people from getting hacked

      Yeah, but when a man really wants to see some Instagram models private nudes, he’ll ignore all those warnings and then some.

      You see it all the time with banking, where somebody has literally had the bank ring them up to ask them if they really know the person they’re sending money to, and that they think they’re being scammed, and they push on regardless getting angry with the bank, only to be all surprise Pikachu in the papers when they are, unsurprisingly enough, scammed.

        Years ago, when one of those emails with the malicious links was going around (I forget which one), one of our coworkers clicked on it. This one promised pictures of cute kittens. She later said she knew it was fake, but she was hoping she’d still get to see the picture of the kittens…

          Honestly if you’re going to scam someone with the promise of cute kitten pictures, you could at least look up some pictures.

        They just put that there so I can’t see the titties!

        When the cashier at Walmart gets all concerned and asks why you need 50 iTunes gift cards you should stop and think for a second.
