If you can’t tell if it’s fake, should you ignore it?
No one wants to get an email detailing their love life, claiming that their computer and email has been hacked, and asking for money to fix the problem.
What do you do when you get several on the same day? From different senders, wanting money sent to different blockchain accounts?
I mean, really, how many Trojans can there be on my computer at one time, and, does it matter in which order I clear them up? Should I do them in the order in which the emails announcing the problem arrived, or reverse order? Can one hacker clean up all the problems, or do I need to engage all of them?
Honestly, it’s just too complicated for me to process. So whenever I see one of these lovlies in my inbox. I send it to the junk mail folder. (Command-shift-J on the Mac keyboard… faster than mousing.)
Thus far, none of my relatives, customers or coworkers have told me they received videos detailing my online adventures. I’m not sure what they’d make of the hours I spend on Medium or Googling things like how dehumidifiers work. To be honest, I have more followers on Medium than all of the above, so I guess I should be asking you: What do you think? Are my keystrokes offensive? Should I pay the money and give you peace?
