I just saw this and felt I should share it. I'm sure most people here wouldn't fall for it but it can't hurt to make sure 👍

If your web browser tells you to do something outside of your web browser, you shouldn't.

Non tech users...like the Amish?

I meant “non tech literate” but I’ll own it at this point 🤣
