This is very despicable and even more when they pretend to be a relative or something. Anyway, if you have elderly relatives, then you should be on guard for them. They can lose a lot via identity theft and other things.
I bought a directory website once on Flippa and it was some scam. In fact, it was a bunch of criminals bidding on the site to give it "fake value". Has anyone heard of this type of con?
Someone posing as me wrote rude messages to other people. Anyway, to prevent this now, I don't open suspicious things along with strong passwords.
However, with phone checks, I'd say hacking cases have went down
There is often a guide while you make the password. Note, however, that I make my own difficult passwords. I don't use recommendations cause they're harder to remember.

How might this be prevented? Does anyone know any other stories similar to...
I had an auto insurance policy and these criminals impersonated employees working for the company. I almost fell for it, but later I checked the actual company and found out I didn't owe what these fake people said I owed
Anyway, I soon blocked those callers and I was amazed they were able to...
What has worked for you? Well, in my case, I don't have any protection, but when I come across spammers, the reaction is to block them. That seems to be enough.
What do you do to prevent it from happening? Myself, I use very strong passwords for the admin. I think it's something all forums should do to prevent hacking, even on paid software which is stereotyped as hack-proof.

It seemed to me that Life Lock was the only one out there because of all the TV ads, but there are many options. Which ones look more attractive to you? Has anyone tried any...
I found it on a hosting forum. Anyway, this seems like an interesting forum with a promising niche. I mean, with AI, fraud protection is a big deal these days, right?
Well, it would be good if there were options for protection. It seems like one company dominates it all. Am I wrong on this? Well, it's the one that's advertised on TV all the time.
Forum spam is easy for me to stop. All I do is ask a certain question during user registration. It's a question where I ask users to spell a word backward. It works very well.
Has anyone tried that? What might be some pitfalls to that method. Well, one might be not changing the question...
Who has thought about it? What might be some pros and cons of it?
Myself, I have seriously thought about it. In fact, the threat has already been real to some extent as people have impersonated my auto insurance company demanding money. This happened last year, but I didn't fall for it...
