I don't consider those valid and I started refusing to complete their trainings. It's underhanded but more importantly I don't think it teaches anyone anything. I knew well not to trust emails like that, but my employer duped me with a somewhat convincing one a couple times. Fuck them. They eventually stopped emailing me about the last training.
Huh? If you’re opening the tests then you would benefit from training. Why be so defensive about it?
The trainings are so dumb and condescending. They treat you like you would routinely click obvious scam links. They are a total waste of time. I knew far more than the trainings 10 years before I ever heard the word phishing. And this is not a flex, anyone using the internet will learn. They are just useless in my experience.
Well because anyone can make a mistake occasionally. No need to waste time I could be doing something useful with instead watching useless trash videos. I resent that my company tricked me artificially into making a mistake.
If you're trying to act like you've never done anything you shouldn't have, we've got nothing else to talk about. See my response to the other Mr. Perfect.
Imagine being this dense, and not knowing it.
You cannot be serious.
If you've been duped, then you are the target for the training, especially if it's happened multiple times. The best locks in the world don't stop you from unwittingly giving away the keys.
Heh, now I remember. You defended the world's biggest piece of shit Kyle Rittenhouse
The star witness for the prosecution in that case said they'd have shot the guy attacking Rittenhouse as well. Three different people went out of their way to fuck with him, two happened while he was running away.
Shocker.
I'm devastated, I'll never emotionally recover from this.
Who was Universalmonk again?
One of the likely many Russian trolls you followed around defending and definitely remember
By Russian troll, you mean someone who disagreed with you?
I mean I'm blocking you because this struck a chord with you and either way that's a good reason to block.
Sure, if that's what you think happened.
I can't remember... Are you the one who was mad that a court of law didn't use your own made up definition of murder and convict using that definition, or are you the obvious sock puppet that chimed in about how you liked to read comment threads backwards and reply without knowing the full context?
Also, there are waaaaaay bigger pieces of shit than Kyle Rittenhouse.
I have a feeling you said everyone rightfully calling out that filth made things up to demonize him
I have a feeling that if you spent more time looking for scam emails, and less time worrying about what may or may not have been said on some fediverse thread at least a year ago, then you wouldn't need multiple re-trainings on how to spot the most obvious phishing emails ever.
Sure Rittenhouse simp
Buddy, you're the kind of person who has to burn their fat wittle fingies multiple times before it sinks into your brain that the stove is hot, aren't you?
If you ever wanted to know why they put those stupidly obvious warning labels on plastic bags and window blinds, you need only look in a mirror.
Nope. The people that are tricked by obvious ones, yes perhaps. It's still underhanded but maybe you can argue for it. This was over a span of more than 5 years and the first one was the first time I'd seen anything like it and was convincing af. They mentioned an internal event going on and used a domain name very similar to the one for the event...
I knew some smartass would come along and be like this about it though.
You're a judgemental idiot who got blocked just now. Congratulations on being so fucking brilliant that you can intuit all knowledge
