#SpotTheScammer Yup, clearsky.app is helpful in fighting scams. I have about a half a dozen different tools that I use for scam fighting and each has its' place.
I'm not going to say too much in public. Put your suspected scam in clearsky.app and play with it.
Check it out. It is one of my scam fighting tools.
i usually find this info manually on clearsky.app
Thanks for the tip.
Yup, I keep lists of scammers too.
So who was the Ukrainian shelter scammer? Give me a handle so that I can deal with it.
👍
Great. I will DM you next.
BTW, I just sent an important DM with long-term value (as opposed to immediate need) to others on the team.
Thanks. Please follow me back so we can also be in private communication, unless you are against DM's.
We need more people REPORTING @maggiecatmom.bsky.social. BMS has not suspended the cat rescue scam account yet. The scam is now blocking several members of the #SpotTheScammer team who have exposed the scam. REPORT, REPOST and block @maggiecatmom.bsky.social!

#SpotTheScammer Gone for now, but not for long. There's an aggressive new animal rescue scam impersonating legitimate animal rescues with multiple accounts per day. Sunday's 3 scam accounts were faking a Texas rescue. Monday's 3 scam accounts were faking a Colorado rescue. They will be back!

Which scammer did you kick and Bluesky let back in. Most scammers are serial scammers. It is how they earn a living, as sleazy as it is.

I am on it now. Wait for my post.

I still carry a paper map and a good compass with me along with my GPS when I am in the backcountry. For many years, I taught navigation classes in Colorado, both map and compass classes and GPS classes. Knowing how to use a map and compass is still an important navigation skill. #GISchat

That was our Caturday. Yes, I do my household chores on Caturday which means letting the monster named Bissell out of the closet. #cats #catsofbluesky #siberiancats
Euphrosyne, my Siberian is a very loving cat too. But then, I worked on building the bond. #siberiancats #catsofbluesky
Sounds about right to me. I would not expect all of the smoke detectors in the house to be on the same circuit.
I am too cheap to hire an electrician too. I recently went to the hardware store to replace some 48 inch florescent bulbs and found out that they are no longer sold in Colorado. I had to rewire the kitchen ceiling light for LEDs. It turned out to be fun and the light is so much better now.
Thanks for reminding me, I need to do the same with my old smoke detectors. I only have 2. You must live in a much bigger home. I like your test method, but I will wear ear protection.
Biden was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer that has spread beyond his prostate. That doesn't help his odds of outliving Trump. OTOH, Trump doesn't take good care of himself and is obviously in both mental and physical decline.
Trump is mentally ill as a narcissist and a sociopath with worsening dementia added to that. This will only get worse...
Traitor Tulsi is just doing what her boss wants her to do.
But the MAGA faithful will continue to love him even if most of them have a high school education at best and work long hours at low paying jobs. MAGA is a cult.
There will be more and more of this.
I have not been to a Thanksgiving dinner since covid, the risks are too high for me. It makes life easier too.
