Problem is it does, and because they can blast this rubbish at high volume, only take a few people to fall for it to make it highly profitable

Greater online education is the only thing that will beat it IMHO. 

 

While my parents are still around people will always be fooled.... They are not stupid at all but they really trust people far too easily! 

oops , sorry I'm wrong again, I didn't realise it was so much more .. I use lastpass as then I can have really difficult passwords to all my sites ... The only issue is if they get into lastpass I'm buggered”
 

That's the problem isn't it, you have to store all these passwords somewhere! and then remember the password for that storage....

That's fair, I do need to have more ridiculous passwords I guess, sigh! Most of the more important ones are but for some I don't even know what the password is these days, if you don;t log in much it is hard to remember. I will gradually reset them.

Hahaha it's always the spelling and grammar that flags it up so easily. 

It's not the password it's the actual email itself ..Just means it's been listed as compromised and why you end up getting loads of spam  ”
 

Ah well. Nothing to do about it then really. 

In fact my result for my work email is I have been 'scraped' by an unknown source from LinkedIn, which is all readily available info, so changing my password won't really make a difference surely....

Without sounding too stupid here, what can you actually do about the 'breaches'? Just reset all your passwords just in case? Feels a little extreme. I mean there must be hundreds and I could easily miss the right one....

Quora is a real rabbit hole isn't it? I had to cancel the emails as I was getting drawn into crazy threads, reading all sorts of wild stories!

Welcome to 2019 11th January 2019 12:16 PM

Happy New Year! I have already started off with lots of new enquiries, it still astounds me how much I get form a cheap Gumtree advert! I need to sit down and get together a proper marketing plan though as I am a bit too responsive at times, but I hate wasting money on adverts that do nothing I left some business cards in a cafe in Liverpool and got  a call though which makes me realise I need to get out there and promote myself a bit more locally. The key word is FOCUS this year, as I want work on building up specific parts of my business. 

I hope everyone had a chance to get a break, I also lost my voice Andy! Although I didn't feel ill luckily.
