My phone's capabilities to call and text were destroyed by some text message I opened. This happened a few years ago.
Has anyone had something similar happen? Were you able to get your phone back? I could not.
Reviews are the way to get business on Fiverr, Wyzant (academic tutoring) and other places, but how do we know people aren't just buying reviews and especially, good ones? Note: a mix of good and bad ones might exist to cover-up the scam.
This is actually a plot to one of Tyler Perry's movies, but seriously, I'm sure it's a real problem. It's when some dream guy cons a girl (or maybe some dream girl cons a guy) just to get the cash and then runs or devilishly says something like "I got you in my corner pocket, lol".
What might be the danger in this? Well, I'm guessing identity theft and unauthorized withdrawals would be a problem.

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.

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...
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...
