Chances are most of us here are pretty tech-savvy and can spot phishing scams a mile off, but the older generation who haven't grown up with the internet are now having to use it and are an easy target for scammers. Check in with your family and friends to make sure Granddad isn't sending money to someone claiming to be Amazon, Grandma isn't using "passw0rd" for every account, and the couple next door aren't sharing their names, address, and bank details on Facebook!

Sound advice. These scammers want rounding up and publicly flogged or something. Such cunts.
