In reply to Samantha. You are welcome. It is sad that we have to do this with our parents but it surely helps. I did the same with mine.

In reply to Thabo Carew. Hi Thabo, cool, yes it is quite a bog problem, especially for older folks. They start panicking when they see a threatening email and they click on links to "sort out the problem"

In reply to Dirk van Staden. Yes, it is crazy what you can do with AI nowadays. There are some tools you can use to check for AI generated content to detect which language models that specific AI used. We will create a post on that soon

Thanks for the link. It is such a problem. We get 100’s of emails every day with people being scammed. This article will help a lot of folks because you can usually pick up via one of these points if it is a fake. Usually the senders email.

With AI it is becoming even more difficult to spot these scams. There are also a few ads on YouTube now (from Elon Musk) which are all scams. So sad people do this every day.
