    Just heard about a new scam in my neighborhood that targets lost cats with chips. The scammer looks for strays - say your family cat jumped the fence for a neighborhood stroll - catches them and if they have an implanted chip they use an RFID scanner to obtain the chip’s number, then call a vet to access the pet registry database (usually telling the vet they’ve found a cat and want to return it) to obtain the pet owner’s contact info. Once they have that, they call the owner and say the cat was hit by a car and they need $$ transferred right now for immediate treatment - or the animal may die. They use cash transfer apps, or wallet transfers to get the money exchanged, then dump the cat. Damn…that’s vicious😱 #scam #scammers #Caturday #extortion

    @elettrona @internet Bisognerebbe fare più ricerche come queste anche sulle altri grandi piattaforme. Sono convinto che si scoprirà molto perché troppi servizi hanno #scam/immondizia varia... In queste ore The Guardian, +972 e Local Call hanno scoperto un maxi-scam con i terroristi statali più feroci del pianeta https://www.kulturjam.it/in-evidenza/progetto-nimbus-google-e-amazon-al-servizio-della-guerra-israeliana/

    Unfortunately, the administrator at social.tchncs.de is a coward. It is not racism or sexism or discrimination of any kind to call out a confirmed scammer.What is happening is Gaza is awful. I have never wavered on this fact. What Israel has done to these poor people is a crime against humanity.But so is a scam trying to make itself as support. That too is an injustice.I need a site that will ignore such nonsense. When there are photos and videos proving there is a scam, and it is not just a wild claim, it should be upheld.If Reddit, Facebook, and Twitter can recognize this as a scam (with proof). Surely, so can the Fediverse. #Fediverse #ActivityPub #Mastodon #Misskey #Scam #Fraud

    @blogThis is a central problem of what makes societies: where do we put trust ? In a capitalist world we are pushed all the way to not trust each other but only the State and companies, not because we want to, but because we have to. It's only in this world that trusting Google is the best thing to do to prevent malware.Which is why we absolutely need to build another system where we have collective circles of trust. No need to wait for the Revolution to happen, we have already started it: our Fediverse instances are bundles of trust, oftentimes not for profit, where we can ask each other questions and support each other. This is, to me, the model where we need to go: those-who-know must take some time to show those-who-don't around, teach them how to actually use a smartphone, install F-Droid and then trust them with everything that's on F-Droid, ....To me the pragmatic (I hate that word) approach is to build mutual aid communities, bring back the human touch. Yes, sideloading is full of malwares, but the solution is to turn to your local geek groups. LUGs used to do that, they should be forwarded all the way to the 21st century where the main device is a smartphone@Gargron
