Learned a wild phishing trick from a receptionist in Omaha
I was waiting to sign some paperwork at a dental office last Tuesday, and the receptionist mentioned how she nearly got tricked by a fake email from "the boss." It looked totally legit with the right logo and signature, but the ask was for gift cards. She said IT had to run a whole training after three other offices in their network fell for it. Has anyone else seen these CEO impersonation scams getting more convincing?

Hate seeing good people get taken advantage of like that.

My cousin's law firm in Des Moines lost $4,000 to one of those last month. It's scary how real they look now.
