    Yes, I do not, either, but apparently an alarming number of people
    still do!

    I think of the elderly, many of whom have discovered SMS. Thanksfully,
    my mother when she was alive knew to reach out to me to confirm, but her
    best friend got burned at least twice responding to classic "urgent" SMS scams.

    It doesn't take many hits to make a venture like those profitable.

    Yes, and unfortunately these types are really good at targeting the elderly.
