Be aware of a new scam called “Quishing;” which is phishing with QR codes. Did you receive an unsolicited package at your home? Did it come with a QR code, instructing you to scan it? Do not scan the QR code unless you know the sender’s credibility. Scammers can download malware on your cell phone if you scan the QR code.
Here are some tips when you see a QR code:
Do not scan a randomly found QR code.
Be suspicious if, after scanning a QR code, the site asks for a password or login info.
Do not scan QR codes received in emails or text messages unless you know they are legitimate. Call the sender to confirm.
Some scammers are physically pasting bogus codes over legitimate ones. If it looks as though a code has been tampered with, don’t use it. Same thing with legitimate ads you pick up or get in the mail.

Listen, It’s a brave new dating world out there and “meeting” people on the internet is handy, and becoming the norm. With that, there are some general rules you ought to follow when courting the love of your life and soul-mate.
1. Stop sending nekid photos of yourself – For the love of all that is just, STOP DOING THIS.
2. Your friend doesn’t really know a Nigerian prince.
3. If you’ve set a time and place to actually meet your forever, and then you get a call saying they’ve been kidnapped and you need to fork over money – bells should be ringing in your head.
Especially if their life is only worth $700 in iTunes gift cards…..🤔
