Lately I’ve been getting fairly “sophisticated” texts that don’t break script but are clearly bots. It starts very innocent, they’ve texted the wrong person. You correct, they thank you, and it might be an hour or more later but it’ll reply again, complimenting your kindness or whatever. I find this delay to be a nice deceiving technique
Today I’m dealing with one that is using iOS with read receipts, I ain’t seen that before. Asked if I could send them money: “Haha, I don’t need your money.”
what is going on, long-game botting? I haven’t seen the iOS angle before today, either
People are absolutely _COOKED_ unless equipped with healthy suspicion
