...and right on cue, a fresh new round of the old 2019 phishing text scam messages from 'venmo' have started pouring in. They tell you your 'venmo account' [that I've never had] is "locked" and that you MUST CLICK THIS LINK to 'unlock' it. The ones I got always specified a 12-48 hour time limit 'or your account will be deleted!!!'

You just know oldsters and the technically naive will proceed through the inevitable "verification process" and give up loads of personal info.
