Scams
It wasn't a Kiwi scam that nearly caught me - supposedly came from Europe using a .icu domain. I hadn't thought of sharing it - but if I got so close to getting caught, with my natural cynicism and scepticism, it seemed timely to warn others.
It is Boxing Day, and yesterday was extremely draining, ever since my stroke (over a decade ago) I get tired easily, and my brain still isn't fully functional - but even so, this is embarrassing, even though they had done a good job of looking and sounding like Google.
The point is - if you see a chance for something you want and it looks too good to be true, it almost certainly is not true. Whatever it is - if you have to pay a small amount to claim it, they want your credit / debit card.
The internet does indeed offer brilliant opportunities - but ALWAYS stay on your watch. If this saves just one person from being ripped off it was worth the embarrassment.
