Oh God we all have a story I bet. My mother in law, walking into her partners lounge and screaming at him to put the phone down when she heard him give give too many details to someone on the phone.... ahhh trust no one!!!!!

I mean, this is the world we live in, where scammers prey on the lonely, vulnerable and gullible
..and untechsavvy, so that scamming for some is a legit career choice, unless you are an indentured slave in a scam factory somewhere in, idk, Thailand.

I hope you talk some sense into him

Although... It is fun wasting scammers time...
