Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do. The generation that grew up with the internet isn’t invulnerable to becoming the victim of online hackers and scammers.::undefined

    I disagree partially with this article. While not every gen z tech consumer is a Linux user. Not all of them fall for scams. It’s rather, the people who are so invested in certain franchise like Fortnight, and trying to get free robux or vbucks. Or trying to get free gift cards to get free curency to buy games on console storefronts. There a some that are gen z the do exersize common sense. Being a gen z myself, I would say I am one of those that do exersize common sense guarding form scams.

      It made you sound really old when you said “fortnight” and not “fortnite”

      Not to mention some of Gen Z is still only around 12 years old.
