Two Scams and Some Spam

What can I say, the government is literally not doing this, and if you click it, you will be faced with the need to insert your financial information, and promptly have your bank account drained. The reason these just keep popping us is two fold, first Facebook sucks badly at stopping scams and will let anyone advertise without checking it first, second people are falling for it all the time. You are just not going to be handed out up to $88,000 from the government. Hell they doubled the GST rebate for 6 months and it caused a hissy fit from the opposition. Can you imagine if they literally just tossed out many billions to people. Just think people, just think first.
And AGAIN with this shit. This has been popping up every month for over a year now. It will be posted as an ad from a bunch of shinny new accounts on Facebook. Again, all you need to do to scam the shit out of people is to give Facebook money and instantly your scam ad pointing to a fake news site that will infect the people dumb enough to click will be a hit. The comments are always interesting on these. The man is an activist for climate change, you get the nut jobs that think there is no possibility the climate is changing because of our stupidity, and no matter how much evidence there is, they deny it - calling him literally a terrorist. Then you get people who probably clicked saying how sad it is. Sigh. Google people, he comes up as alive (at the time of this post). It's literally amazing that these get shared as well, it's like hay friends here, have a virus.
This one is on my Instagram Real. It came up in 2 minutes after I posted it. It's a porn spam crap comment. Well, I'm just not interested in your porn and I am not going to need a promo code for some dodgy site where people post naked photos. I'm literally a nudist, nudity in it's self is not sexual to me at all. I get a shit load of follows from these people as well. They will have a hand full of photos stolen off of a modeling site, and if anything in the bio, it's a link. If you let them be, they will eventually DM you and try to get you interested in their nudes. A friend has only these following him on another app. He literally thinks they like him. Sigh. But he never checks his DMs so he has not figured it out yet, and when we tell him it's porn spam accounts, he says "no". LOL.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.
