Beware

Beware of weirdos lurking the internet
Let them in your life at your own risk
It’s the playground of psychopaths
Wolves in sheep’s clothing
And social outcasts
Heed my words
Beware

The internet is full of all kinds of people, Line; it is up to us to be always on the alert! What I hate most is scammers and fraudsters trying to cheat us out of our money! Your words need heeding. Best regards // paul

Thanks for your visit and comment, Paul. The dumb scammers are too obvious to cause much damage. The scariest ones are the "nice" ones you get to "know" and end up trusting.
