      Wow WtfEvenIsExistence, I am so lucky to have found you because I am scared that someone has my Apple ID. If I post my username and password here could you check it for me?

        I hear it’s Tim Apple’s power play: Cut off potential users to the competitors by buying out gift card supplies, so they cannot acquire new users. It’s really smart if you think about it!!

      I signed up for updates. Apparently there’s some Nigerian prince and he’s got this giant cache of wealth that they’ll transfer to me. You guys should totally check it out I personally stand to make $300m off this deal!

    That’s actually a really good phish.

    My mother could fall for that. My grandmother definitely would.

      Other than the use of a comma instead of full stop, it’s almost warming to see the scammers attempt to create a literate scam

    While everyone is reveling in how obvious it is, it is important to remember that the vast majority of scams are targeted at the elderly and uneducated. As the tech savvy in the family it’s our job to coach them on best practice. I know you all know this but there’s always the chance someone doesn’t. Protect your grandparents ✌🏻
