My elderly parents recently received an iPad to read the newspaper and play their “imaginative” games. Along with their new toy came their first email address; a technology unknown to them even at a basic level that most of us take for granted. A few nights after they set up their email, my mother called me in a panic to tell me that a strange African man had emailed her to say he loved her and was waiting for her response. “What will your father think?” he exclaimed. It took me almost an hour to explain to her that Internet scammers use this trick to extort money from people and to ignore it.
