If Its Free, I Block It

If It’s Free, I Block It By: Miracle Man 7/23/2023 Technology is making life one big scam, The prizes they say I’ve won are all flimflam. They’re on the truck needing info to deliver, these daily emails make my skin shiver. The prizes I’ve won are in various amounts, I hear from Banks and have frozen accounts. Banks need additional information to reopen, they see an old geezer that they can rope in. But age is no indicator of this man’s moxie, and no I wouldn’t make another my proxy. There is no truck with one turnip missing, that I’ve fallen from so these I’m dismissing. Every one I’ve helped has a hand out for more, and often they’re so many I'm forced to ignore. It looks like AI will be the biggest scam of all, and government solutions do not enthrall.

So true Tom, so true. It has been said that the most frightening words we can hear are....."We're from the government and where here to help"
