I can imagine scammers using anything to scam u out of anything if they can manipulate or make u think it legit but it really bs to get ur funds or private info any. so as she says on how to spot a fake qr code or screen.

Excellent info about scams arising from malicious QR codes. No, I haven’t got scammed with a fake QR code because that situation hasn’t arisen till now and my XR’s built in QR code scanner is very intelligent enough to warn me about malicious QR codes and that helps me take action. The tips provided are simple, practical and easily understandable and something that can easily be incorporated into our daily lives. Wonderful program, loved it.

The old school in me don’t scan QR codes. I’ve never been “curious George” when it comes to QR codes. I don’t even bother to notice them anymore.

the fact that when it involves the mail it is a federal offense should make us safer because the penalties are much higher than some random qr code .

😮🙏 All QR Codes look dicey to us , so we are safer to order stuff or pay our bills the old-fashion ways with physical menu or our debit cards or scan QR Code with a phone without any banking apps or ebanking transactions on it ... 😊🙏

If a person isn’t sure what a URL is and has no way to look up the definition, they aren’t scanning QR codes. 😅 It’s the website address btw.

Great video but why portray the scammer as a hooded man with a beard? It could be any race or gender. Why not stick with the masked person?
