Crime Call Centre Scam Shocks Chiang Mai University, Millions Lost
A victim of social engineering and extortion is found at any age. You are obviously living in a bubble influenced by your own bias and lack of knowledge. Social engineering fraud comes in many forms. It is psychological manipulation. In the USA, the FTC found that 40% of adults age 20-29 lost money to fraud, while only 18% of adults over the age of 70 did so, challenging the narrative of older adults falling victim to scams. https://blog.knowbe4.com/ftc-study-millennials-are-the-biggest-victims-of-social-engineering Some of the more popular variations of social engineering are; - Romance scams. - Investment/Boiler room fraud. The callers can be relentless and target older people and other vulnerable groups. - Sextortion. It targets young people usually aged 13-16. How do you think adults are able to con western teenagers into sending nude photos and then extorting them? A common scam targeting vulnerable people are extortionists send emails claiming they've hacked the victim’s computer, stolen compromising webcam footage, and accessed personal contacts. To make the threat more convincing, they often include breached data and a Google Street View image of the victim’s home. Victims are then pressured to pay a ransom, typically in Bitcoin, to prevent the supposed release of the compromising material.

The Rise of GB News and the Making of a Mini-Murdoch
Living in the UK it’s becoming increasingly obvious that the BBC and Sky are completely biased in favour of the establishment view. I am a channel flicker viewing GB news and the two aforementioned channels on a regular basis, an example the news last Saturday that channel crossings by Illegal Economic Migrants had risen dramatically was immediately aired on GB news, while on Sky it was not mentioned and the BBC reluctantly mention the facts on the Monday in a small detail. I’ve now come to thinking that the most important news is the news that the established media are reluctant,if at all they do air. -

Epithets for life - do you have any?
Everyone is an a-hole every now and then, but not very often, and while there are some full-time a-holes in the world, they are few and far between. So while it is possible for anyone to come across an a-hole on any given day, the likelihood of coming across two on the same day is such that it’s likely just that you’re being an a-hole today.
