I'm happy enough to live in a country where this is considered so inhumane that this is very obviously a scam. I understand why you'd (almost) fall for this. I think it is wrong to assume you never will. So put safeguards in place, it may be good to start thinking about how those could look like. I have no idea... I'm very afraid my parents will someday waste a lot of money on a scam like this. Or, you know, me.

Yeah, just cutting off power out of nowhere is way too hard for me to believe. You always first get a couple of warnings over the course of a couple of months. I've got to admit, although I'm not a security expert at all, all of these scams sound way too unlikely for to me fall for. But then again, it's easy to think that when you're behind your desk reading an article called "how I got scammed". It's very different when they reach you when you're already stressed and confused. Who knows what I'd fall for. I hope I'll never find out.
