True story. I know someone personally who got a call and was socially engineered into downloading malware and all their bitcoin was taken. It’s crazy that anyone still falls for these scams.

Be wary of unsolicited calls and verify the caller's identity. Always double-check before downloading anything.

I would qualify that statement by suggesting that it's crazy anyone who *has been around a while* would fall for them. It's Eternal September out there. It's not crazy how the uninitiated fall for it.
