Half Crazy K 2.0


     

    LOL. Someone in my Miami office fell for one of those and then there was a DOJ-wide email about 5 people falling for it. He wasn't pleased.

    We got one of those during the pandemic where people fell for one saying you needed to change your outlook e-mail. In fairness to them, we have had all sorts of glitchy things with outlook, so I can see how it happened. I contacted the help desk a few times because I wound up in other people's e-mail!

      Part of my new job as a Security Architect I will do such tests on employees, lol

       

      I do wonder if I was random, of if it is because I am a new hire.  At my last job I used to get tons of legit phish attempts.  I am suspicious of everything, being the keeper of highly confidential information.

        Howdy. I "ran" 3.7 slooow miles. Slogging is more like it. Oh well, at least that one is done. Our humidity is starting to return a bit too, but temps haven't been too terrible.

          Hard to say. But you're doing it right if you're suspicious of everything.

           

          One time a bank called me at home, and asked me some questions and wanted me ro enter my pin or my sin or something. I told the lady no. She could be anybody. (That was about 15 years ago). She told me she hadn't thought of that. She gave me her work phone number, and I called her back after checking that the phone number she game me was for the bank. After that I proceeded with her questions. It was legit, but could have been a scam.

           

          I will not answer anything on a phone call or a text or a  email that was sent to me. Never. Simple as that.

            At my company, I almost think everyone gets the e-mail. I've been there 19 years, so it's definitely not because I'm new.

             

            I'ev gotten 3 texts today from DHL about a delivery & waiving the signature for "my" order. I have nothing. I didn't respond the the texts and called them. For them to delete my phone number from what turned out to be a legit tracking number was insane. They wanted my contact info & I told them no way. All you need to know is the my zip code does not match the one in your files and delete my number.

               a bunch of near-90 days coming up 

               

              For as far as the eye can see. Thankfully we got a break from the runaway train that was late June and all of July. Couldn't imagine going through two full months of that ridiculousness!

                  I have a Half from April 2020 that is giving the option to run virtual (no) or defer to 2021 (yeah right), 2022, or 2023. Seems like choosing either of the later 2 dates is hopefully OK?

                        This is basically what my cancelled May marathon gave me and I’m thinking/hoping 2022-23 will be Ok. But I guess I don’t need to do anything until registration for those years opens up.

                            2022 or 2023 assumes the race management company is still in business.

                              Yes that was my thought too.

                               

                              I have until Oct 2 to decide. If I do nothing, it automatically chooses Virtual option
