doc roy l. pain Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Just like hoarding tissue paper, hand sanitizers, and masks, now we have people setting up fake virus testing stations around the community so they can charge you and get your personal info. Tv reporters are busting them up and bringing the attention to the public. The local law enforcement aren’t responding to complaints because it is not a serious crime. They’re keeping their social distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Would it be a serious crime if one or two of those fake testers received an application to the side of the knee with a 4 foot piece of 1/2" rebar? On second thought, I'd use a 6 foot piece to comply with social distancing requirements..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailrider #896 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Colorado has had some duffeses posing as cops and stopping people for being out during the mandated stay-at-home (except for food and meds). If I were stopped, I would NOT roll down my window, and would immediately dial 911 and ask the sheriff dept. if they had somebody out there. I would try to get the license plate number, as well. Someone like that could not only expose people they stop to the virus, but who knows what else they were trying to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allie Mo, SASS No. 25217 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I'm also wondering about some of the FB "fun" questionnaires. They ask your work history, names of your pets... I'm not saying I haven't been fooled. I answered the "names of your pets" one and feel somewhat safe as I use none of their names in my passwords.

But for many other people it would be a way to collect personal data so that the hackers could make educated guesses about passwords. I tell everyone I know not to do those as they were created as a tool to mine fb for personal data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One reason I do NOT do those. I have always felt it was a way of getting info on you. So I read other peoples. But don't do them myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
