If spammers can spoof any number can they use the numbers that businesses often have posted publicly? Confirmation bias but I seem to be getting a lot of coincidental wrong numbers from various businesses recently.

so i notice my pixel now has a smart screener where a robo google voice says the call is being screened and then attemps to do a voice to text transcipt for "legit" calls. havent used it much other then the one curiosity try with friends and family. the voice to text is bad btw. e: btw, do spammer know if you let a call time out or you just swipe down and block it?

I been getting a ton of spam calls for pain treatment. Also anyone here have a Pixel 1/2/whatever and have you been trying out their call screening service for spam? Do spammer know its a live number if you dismiss a call VS just letting it timeout or in my case using this call screener.

The Lone Badger posted:One teaspoon of pure msg fed to a person is very excessive. Use extremely small amounts or bulk it with dextrin or salt so you can sprinkle it freely. the guidelines I seen with a quick search engine try is about 1/4 tsp for a whole dish. also maybe placeboing myself, but I think adding a tiny bit of MSG to stuff makes it taste better.

I forgot which video essay it was, but some MLMs also do their own version of loot boxes or other cultish things like telling your spose/SO to quit their job and help you. (the lootbox one was some zuckbook clothing MLM that gave you like one nice legging in a box full of ugly rear end leggings or something)

They also require you to buy an insane amount of product when you join, we're talking multiple thousands of dollars for their smallest starter pack. yeah it was Lularoe.

so whats with spam texts being sent from email addresses ( gmail or some rando junk), sending a junk url that I assume is has some sort of malware. is this how text spam is going to be in the future since spoofing phone numbers is getting harder(because of that shaken/stirred thing?)?

there's a boots thread in You Look Like poo poo; supposedly the "good" goon fashion forum. you should probabaly just go tot a physical store that does work wear, pretty sure brands have their own store fronts so you dont gamble on amazon or whatever loving you over.

From that article I linked earlier: this is like the Paper Towns/copyright traps thing but dumber. also reminder that you should probably use a standalone GPS device.

greazeball posted:I teach college courses and when I ask, it's probably less than 10% of students run an adblocker. Most common reason why is "meh" followed by "it's too complicated/I'm too lazy to figure it out". I've also heard from a number of students that you always have to allow all the cookies and trackers or the websites won't work properly. unless they're using the scholar databases the college /college library, oh and the library itself has, not having a adblock and some other stuff is going to make their web searches poo poo. also lol at people needing their internet dopamine hit.

lol if scammers have to invent their own MFA/Identity Friend or Foe to make sure they dont call their own peeps. there's a non zero chance they call the pal in the desk next to them and they still do the IFF process even though they hear the audio echo next tot them.

I always find it deeply ironic that crime orgs re invent bureaucratic structures . some npr program had a bit about romance fishing, and the "retention dept"/ crime peeps trying to keep a person(this was a woman that turned into a scam buster herself) on the hook, like trying to spin a new story about why they cant meet or a new reason/coincidental tragedy why they need money. (oh no my son got sick please give me $X). there's a non zero chance some of these romfishers use plots from trashy rom books as ideas.

going from a recent John Oliver episode, messing with them might be harmful as its likely its just some sort of passport hostage whose job is to be the phone banks/call center. tbh its either best to just ignore them completely so their criminal org managers dont give them a talk.
