Mowing is finished for the next two weeks. :thumbs: I work from home tomorrow thank goodness. My Dad ended up with Covid but he zoomed right through it. My son was much sicker than him. We just hope Mom doesn’t get it but Dad is now testing negative. I’m pooped.

I keep getting these emails that say they are from Coinbase but aren’t. The email address is bogus. How stupid do they think people are?
Scammers regularly snag people of all age groups and all levels of education. In the USA billions are lost each year due to scams of all kinds.


When I receive unsolicited email I never open them. Those get deleted with extreme prejudice. If I accidentally open one I never click on any links. I don't see the greatest majority of scam emails. Those go straight to my junk folder. I've setup very aggressive filtering and my ISP does aggressive filtering. Believe it or not, a large number of people never setup any kind of email filtering whatsoever.

    Good morning random folks :) Have you any plans today?
    Back to work for me. I wish it was another three day week. I still have two more reviews to do so will try to work on them at lunchtime. We have out of town visitors the next two days so I’m sure I’ll have zero time after work to spend writing.

    Yeah, visitors tend to cut done on your alone time.

    Morning, mixers.


    Weather still on repeat, although the claim is it's going to be cooler. Rumors of rain are so far still just rumors. :(

    All it takes is one sucker to make their day, and email is cheaper than snail.

    I get the privilege to wait on my mother who is having day surgery. There's some fools here arguing with the staff about wearing masks. I think the masks are stupid, but it's their house and their rules.

    Good morning :greengrin:

    Was 48° earlier this morning, refreshingly cool. Might make it to 70° later today.

    Just finished asking for a name change. Currently my user name is displayed like so...

    And that is funny and very amusing to me... I am "ShowMeTwic" with a lost 'e' hanging around in the middle of freakin' nowhere. :lol: :lol:

    Anywho, I tried for SMT... but forum sw says "4 characters" [ :glare: ]... so SMT* it is then. Everyone calls me SMT, so... this makes sense (to me :w00t:).

    Sooooo, when y'all see user SMT* - - - it is not some scammer spoofing me. It is the REAL me. Hmmm, however if you feel 'duped' go ahead and send me $1000. :lol: :lol:

    I know it only takes one but they sent the same email 3-4 times on one day. First thing I did was closed the email and went to my coinbase account on a separate device to verify everything was ok. I've gotten in a habit of forwarding those types of emails to either the FCC or if the company has a phishing reporting email account then I send it to them. In this case I forwarded the email to coinbase.

    We went to visit my BiL in the hospital Saturday and had to wear masks. My thought is if you don't want to follow the rules then stay outside.
