I remember years ago when scammers would pop up here and there on eBay with their completely phony ads. It was so obvious but people would still fall victim to them but it seems like it's becoming more and more rampant. They're on dating websites, selling sites, forums, payment sites, real estate sites, employment sites, Craigslist and under rocks. It's totally unreal how they managed to rack in billions or dollars off victims.

They tried several times with me but this one time they sent me a fake check which I verified by just calling the bank and knew then it was a phony check. I didn't have to even deposit it b/c it would have bounced.

Have you guys ever experienced anything like that?

just people offering to fix my mac. They actually called me. I played along with the guy for a while and then called him out. He got really pissed and said he was going to shut down my internet access and lock my computer.

I don't think Mac ever contacts you for service. If you get any contact from someone claiming to be a Mac technician, tell them you will call them back. You have to call Apple and arrange a phone conversation by automated answer system and a real person will call you back within a couple minutes.

Yeah MAC techs/reps never ever call unless you reach out to them for any troubleshooting. I belong also to a watch forum and I can't tell you how many stupid people are out there that fall for it. I saw a few watch members fall and wired a mean ..$10 or even $15,000 for a Rolex that never came. Unbelievable!
