I had one in Google flights this week. It split my flights with the departure on Alaska. After I put in all the info the only option to book was linked to some travel agency. Somehow being in Google flights made me think it was legit. Nah, it was a scam.

My credit card number gets compromised about once a year. I use that opportunity to not update the new number into any of my online subscriptions and it's like canceling the ones I don't want.
You have to watch out for phishing (spoof) emails. With AI they are getting really, really good / hard to tell them from a legit email. Even the sender's email address--which used to be an easy tell-- are now like Service@wellsfargo.customercare.com or some other non-official address that sounds like the real one by adding another word. Never click links. |

The Chinese stole everything in my DOD file on their investigations of me. All my permanent records. Birth certificate, SS #, places I’ve lived, worked etc. I got life long identity and theft protection. Had no issues.

I was working at CENTCOM and someone in Thailand used my credit card to buy like $25 worth of stuff. I got alerted. I have to notify my superior within an hour of finding out.
I was notified the next day they caught the guy and he’s in a Thailand jail.

Another item is at least some carriers have scam blockers that won't even ring to your phone...T-Mobile's is free (Scam Shield) and for myself the number of calls has dropped from 1-2 per day to ~3-5 per month. Verizon has a similar app, but I think those assholes actually charge to block numbers.
