Warning: I almost lost $500 last week because I clicked a link in a text that looked like it was from my bank.

Remember that just typing a password into the wrong box can still be a huge risk, @miamitchell. A lot of those fake sites are built to grab anything you type, even if you mess up the field. They might capture your keystrokes as you go. So that cold sweat was totally right... it was a close call. Always better to close the whole browser tab the second something feels off.

Honestly though, how close did you actually get to losing it? Like did you enter your full login info or something?

Man, @riverthompson, I once typed my whole password into the username field by mistake on a sketchy site. My finger was hovering over the enter key when I finally noticed. That cold sweat feeling is something else.
