interesting twist on spam/phishing
« on: October 09, 2017, 02:17:12 PM »
I got this one today... I wonder how many people freak out when they see it. Good thing I know it was't me and I work alone so it it isn't anyone else here either!

Hahah!  They are really working hard to get you to understand what they want. LOL.   They are hoping someone is dumb enough to bite.


Isn't Bit coin like "internet fake money" to play online game with?

Not as fake as you may think. Like any money, as long as folks establish a standard value and agree to accept it, it's as real as the stuff in your wallet.
And this stuff dodges the record keeping and paper trail many dislike even with legitimate purchases. Perfect for extortion and worse.

Definitely not "play money" in many parts of the world.

Of course it takes "real money" to buy bit coin to send to someone.
