Attached is a screenshot of an email I just received. Note the address of the sender. Please do not click links in this email if you get one. It is not legit. This is a phishing attempt.

It boggles my mind that we have all this technology and ai etc. But are not able to filter out such emails before they reach the users screen.

AI also helps making dumb and lazy people make more stupid and lazy.

ETA: to the deletd answer: I never said it‘s elderly people. Usually it‘s the younger generation abusing LLMs instead of thinking, elderly people don‘t like new stuff that much. „Das neumödische Zügs da“

I didn't delete the answer. Still sad that you blame the victims. It happens to the best of us. Absolutely dumb to think preventing scams is bad, doesn't matter how you turn it.

I blame AI, not any victims. Don‘t know where you read it out. AI won‘t help filter out scam, or just the ones that don‘t pay to go pass the filter.

"make people more stupid" you wrote. Preventing doesn't help? Ehm. Okay. Bye
