Technology is awesome! When used for good. Unfortunately it’s also made it easier for scammers to basically run scams from all over the world.
There are some people that I was close to that I would have paid anything to be able to virtually say goodbye without having to take lots of time off, book hotels, arrange a rental car, and so on. Today we can do that - assuming we check and make sure that the streamer is actually the funeral home or the family.
This week’s scam is one of those that prey on peoples’ grief and loneliness. I despise scammers - I think they’re the scum of the earth. (And if you are a scammer and you’re reading this - I hope you can sleep at night knowing how much harm you cause. I hope that if your local religion has a hell, that you find yourself in it.)
