I think I received an e-mail with this a few days ago. Since I didn’t know the sender I deleted it without opening the pdf attachment.

Are they warning us about Google? Isn’t that a bit late?

What, hypothetically, would need to happen before people started to recognize use of Microsoft software in critical applications as a national security risk? Oh, I don’t know, pipelines, for example.

MY stolen data can at worst, be used to TRY to get money I don't have using credit I don't have.
I'm fairly certain no one is coming to my door to evict me from my home and property.
I will die as an owner.
IF my stolen data is used in an election plot ... I'm not alone and it will never be repaired .. (Look at 2020 and now the Arizona re-count)
NO, imo ... the credit scam fear is another rarely devastating (I'm sure there are some) event that gets more ink and air than what it deserves.

Ignore/discard all such emails. They’re phishing.

But I figure, it beats heck out of random door-to-door salesmen.

Yep I do too. Get the scam phone calls, that is. Not freak out. I'm WAY past the freakout point, nothing phases me.

If I don’t know the sender, I also delete any attachments. Or Norton 360 Premium and/ or MalwareBytes Premium sniffs it and quarantines it for me.
