Ten commandments

What are the rules we need to live by in the modern technological world? Are the rules actually any different to the rules our parents and grandparents had to learn? In fact, I don’t think anything has changed. Here are ten rules that I think apply today but aren’t actually new.

1. Don’t trust strangers, particularly if they offer you money, a business “opportunity” or love.

Anyone offering you sudden wealth, a fantastic job which you know you’re not really qualified to get and anyone, absolutely anyone who says they love you when you’ve never seen them “in the flesh” can’t be trusted. They’re after your money, money you’ll never see again. Remember that scammers don’t offer refunds.
