they are very good at fooling trusting types. . . if you are a trusting type, of which i am not, which one might be able to tell by reading my posts, then you need to have a trusted friend or relative who is not the trusting type, to check emails and texts before responding. . .
Note very seldom are there texts or emails which truly have to be answered immediately from commercial businesses. . .
they are just tactics to play on your emotions, so if you have any histrionic tendencies, also find a trusted person to review texts and emails, or set your phone up to bock any call not on your contacts lists to slow down your emotional response function.
we just blocked the source of a hack text with 20 phone numbers on it, so now we have to block some of the numbers on the phone list, but you have to be careful to check each number that its not a call back number for a validation code, etc
