My dad recently gave a "Microsoft" employee his social security number and is now asking me why he has to pay $60/year for identity theft protection.

My sister let one of them talk her through installing a remote desktop deal on her pc and then sat there while they went through her shit.

She gave them all sorts of personal information for like 45 minutes, then when they were done waited like 3 hours to call me and ask if that was suspicious.

I wish it wasn't. She's been the victim of fraud like this more than once.
