Here's a frightening article demonstrating how easy it is for us to lulled into believing a scenario that would extract our personal data -enough to hack our online bank accounts- just for the promise of a chance to win some theatre tickets [substitute your prize of choice]. Made me think twice about at what point I might challenge a questioner's right to ask certain questions. We're sometimes too polite or too sacred that we would be ineligible for the prize if we don't anser but we have to remember that a prize is nothing if our bank account has been cleared out and we have thousands of someone else's debt attributed to us. Resolve with me now -I will not give out my name to random strangers or personal details that could be part of my security checks [in my case, my mother's maiden name would be safe to give out]. -Hey make it up if you don't want to be confrontational.
Security no match for theater lovers
