Been getting a lot of people trying to pull the wool lately. From PCH to Amzon. Amzon was misspelled stating we had a $745 charge on our card and to call an 855# t o straighten it out. Yeah right. Just his morning a guy claiming to be from PCH saying I won 5.5 million and a new truck. Said I will be waiting on my front porch for them to pull up and hung up. LB

DON'T be too suspicious!! A cousin of mine back in the Hills scored a "great" blowjob from a random "Uber call" with a sleeve of "Fig" Newtons. She said the driver appeared female:

I almost never like or give thumbs up on facebook but Dewalt had a big set of power tools they were supposedly giving away and all you had to do was like it to enter. I thought what the heck and did . About a week later I get this email from Dewalt claiming that I'd won but looked at the senders web address and it wasn't normal so I flagged it and deleted it , A couple days later I got one from Milwaukee claiming I'd won thier tools . All this AI now days is making it easier for crooks . I don't even use my phone anymore, just carry it in the vehicle incase of an emergency . Life got way more peaceful when I quit fumbling around with it.

One question I have is what is a sponsored website ? If you google Amazon and other websites there are sponsored links to the site. Does that mean a 3rd party could potentially have access to monitor our searches and purchases ?

The 3rd party you speak of is the Federal Government. They have been monitoring our searches and what we buy for years.
