@stagerabbit @ahltorp @davep @signalapp ok i withdraw my remark as I didn't see the dialog. If it said "verify pin" someone might have done that without thinking

@jtb @stagerabbit @ahltorp @signalapp Fair enough. Social engineers and phishing scams are by definition very good at this.

@jtb @stagerabbit @ahltorp @davep @signalapp You still get those bona fide people on the phone who ask 'can you confirm your ...' (dob, account number, whatever), who then expect you to *give* them the detail for them to check. So it's not surprising that people can be tricked into 'confirming' online.
