+1 for ad blockers - installing one (I use uBo as well) on the computers I "manage" must've saved my relatives 100s of € in falling for scams. I'm sure of this, because a month ago Facebook pushed a bypass for ad blockers and within days, one of my relatives almost lost 300€. What saved her was her poor understanding of English - she called me to translate something for her and I immediately smelled a scam.
