This needs to be news every single day until it's dealt with.

The three essentials of recognising a scam:

1. Emotion. Scammers want to elicit an emotional response, not a rational one.

2. Movement of money. You lose, they gain!

3. Urgency. It needs to be done NOW!

So, don't be an ostrich, be an emu!

My contribution for #scamsafe week.

Don't be an ostrich, be an emu!

"What??" I can hear you say.

Ostriches (apocryphally) bury their heads in the sand.

When it comes to the possibility of being scammed, this is clearly the wrong thing to do.

Instead, be an emu!

What does that mean?

That didn't work, did it? 🤣
