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 โœŒ๐Ÿป
