Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 13-5-2020: The Royal Flying Corp

13th May, 2020.


You know, even in the midst of slightly eased Lockdown … ?

Stuff’s happening.

Although not much stuff on a personal level.

Job hunting … ?   Is not easy.

Especially when you see how many legitimate ‘work from home’ gigs want you to provide your own laptop.

That leaves me with mix feelings.

The other thing I know … ?

Is that scams are going on … 

You’ll possibly be aware I picked up a cheap USB stick, a few weeks ago.   One that had been sold to me as a two terabyte capacity stick, at a very good price: but turned out to be some 32gigabytes.

In other words, it had a storage capacity several hundred times smaller than advertised.

It seems that — possibly — I’m not the only one to be caught out by shopping scams.

It seems Google has, as well.

It seems a scam shopping site called MyTechDomestic managed to work it’s way up the Google advertising rankings.

Its seems to be falsely advertising several expensive hi-tech devices at discount prices … 

And falsely advertising where it’s based, as well.

And fooled Google in the process.

There’s always one, isn’t there … ?
