How is this surprising?
It isn't surprising.
>Gen Z grows up with the internet in a time where "CLICK HERE TO GET FREE T-SHIRTS" ads are dying out rapidly
>A lot of them use adblock so they never see shit like this
>Only get exposed to this kind of thing through direct emails
>Basically never use emails for anything but official communications with their schools/unis/companies they work for
>Also grew up during a time where people scamming you on the streets is almost completely dead
>They fall for online scams
I mean I'm not surprised
Kids scam each other all the time though, I feel like they would've learned how to spot it by the time they reach highschool at the earliest
Honestly, those c**ts do get better and better. I am used to get notifications from my bank on my mobile phone per sms. Got one 2 weeks ago from supposedly my bank about my pin number. I do know that they would never ask that but how the frick did those scamming buttholes even got my mobile number in the first place? And then knew to masquerade as my bank?
They buy it in bulk either from database breaches or from information brokers.
Your bank got datamined and they either didn't notice it or decided not to tell you
The amount of information for sale out there is causing some serious repercussions.
The amount of it that gets hacked and leaked out causes even more problems but we don't hear about that until it's been out for a year+
The best/worst part is that most of the scams they're falling for are the
>Someone messages you saying "hey how you doin?" with a cute girl avatar
Your bank sells your data. When it reaches critical mass they just report a data breach and go back to business as usual to avoid accountability. Serves the goy right
It's kind of wild to me that only a small generation really knows how to use a computer and the internet. The one before grew up without it and doesn't want to learn, and the new one only uses their phone and their gated ecosystem.
Being a old loser is not a personality trait, get over it.
this
if you're over 30 DIE OUT BOOMER SCUM
you'll be over 30 soon too dont worry, time flies
Really does, feels like just yesterday I was 22.
Kek this, it's also why hating old people is moronic. You're going to blink and be 70, that's life.
>reading and believing online article slops
boomer moment
i just use a diff name online. if i get anything with my fake name on it i ignore it.
simple as.
>good morning Sar, clikk here to fukks my pusy !!!
How does anybody fall for this at all
>SHEEEESH free games?? ong?? I'm there frfr
>tf my pc so slow cuh??
It's nice to know that computer literacy is mostly enjoyed by one generation of humanity.
the lonelier you are you most likely you are to fall for scams makes sense
To all Zoomers
I wish the absolute worse for you all
May you be forever alone, poor, and unloved
Sincerely, a Millennial
Oldest zoomer is like 28 or 29. They are basically old now. Doesn't make much sense to hate on them.
I doubt this article talks about zillenials though, probably more mid-zoomers/borderline Gen Alpha gays, so late teens to early 20s
Then the writer should be more specific.
its not their fault don't be mean
>old people use computers much less thus less likely to fall for online scams
>young people much more likely to use computers thus more likely to fall for online scams due to economy of scale
What are misleading headlines, sars?
that's wonderful news, i don't mind having extra income
>the people who fell for the ''cut your dick off bro and become a woman, that will be 50K + tip and medical bills for the rest of your life'' scam fall for scams
woah
One scam I’ve almost fallen for is everytime I order something online a bot texts me a few days later something like
>something has gone wrong with your delivery
but obviously more believable than that. Has a link that takes you to a fake site designed to look like the postage website, where you put in your info and if you click any of the “links” it’ll take you to the real postage site.
This happens EVERYTIME i order anything online, been considering changing my number, or getting two or three new phone numbers. One for personal, one for work, and one for dumping onto websites asking for my number.
>Falls for 90's grandma scams
>Can't operate a file system
>Literally was not taught how to type because boomers said, "Why would these kids need to type?! Everything will be ran off of iPads!"
>Nearly all of them are gambling addicts who throw money away hand-over-fist on digital nonsense
Society is fricked, big time.
Don't forget that they pour millions into online hostess clubs where the biggest engagement you get from it is hearing your name said once.
the entirety of the modern internet is insane to me, when I learned to use the internet the absolute number one rule was never EVER use your real information to sign up for anything ever. Now people post absolutely everything about themselves online for no reason and I do not even know how this started being acceptable.
Same reason it's now the norm to have a box sitting in your house with no purpose but to re ord your every spoken word and relay it back to the corporation that sold it to you.
sheltered since childhood all the way, in primary schools with banning of physical sports, in secondary schools in promoting safe spaces, in work environment where diversity nonsense and safe spaces are heavily promoted
The moment they get out into the internet where there's no guardrails, they fall prey to real human interactions.
Back then, it was the Nigerian prince scamming you for money with spam emails
Nowadays, it's multi-million dollar companies scamming you for your information and data to sell and make more money
Free tide pods, only 39.99$
this actually terrifies me as a parent. I grew up with the internet so I've seen everything but they're new. once my generation goes all the accumulated knowledge goes with it
As a parent you're kind of suppose to teach them. Everyone should have been teaching them. However there's also some other nasty hands that's been at play here so I wouldn't point all the blame at them. 50% of the blame isn't just people not teaching them. Its also companies preventing people from ever learning how to use a computer.
They want their users to be dumb as shit so they can always take their devices to them to $$$repairs$$$. They want computers and electronics to be like cars, always taking it to a mechanic for the tiniest shit. Software that prevents users from fixing their own shit, hardware locked into devices so you can't change it out. Just shady shit from companies that want their users to be dumb.
At this point it stops being about computer skills and more like life skills. Teach your kids that these companies aren't looking out for you. Show them that there are alternative ways to do stuff, but the most important life skill anyone could ever receive.
STOP FOLLOWING FRICKING ONLINE TRENDS
>Play with a couple of zoomshits in Discord for an MMO.
>Notice on their profiles and on other platforms how all of these homosexuals have stacking subscriptions for fricking everything
>Subscriptions for Spotify, subscription for Discord, subscription for YouTube, subscription for Vortex/modding sites, buying every fricking thing on the game store if they even remotely like it with stacks of outfits they only wear once. It's like they don't ask themselves if they need whatever they're buying, getting shit because it has an added filler to it that feels like a scam.
Christ fricking almighty, do zoomshits have no semblance of priorities and self-control?
