interesting scam - tommag - 05-20-2024
This is a new (to me) scam. I got 3 texts tonight from the same number about a pre-check in being cancelled. Since I have an appointment tomorrow my initial reaction was that it pertained to that. I don't know what the hook is, but I'm sure responding would be a bad deal.

That would require actual work and give a shat. Scamming is easier and more profitable.

That's one thing that always kept me from taking the wrong path. The cost of freedom for years is worth more than a few thousand dollars that I could easily make honestly in that period or less. In other words, the BS to PR (BullSh*t to Pay Ratio) isn't worth it.
