So, my question for you is have you been making comments or sending messages online about debt, money, wealth, etc? Then again, maybe Skynet just knows you're unemployed and that's what makes you a target for get-rich-quick.

Thinking that just that could make me a target of these crooks ... wow, just wow.

On large, generic platforms like Facebook and YouTube, I sense the possibility that these ads that are essentially spam can drive a much higher conversion than the legal businesses' ads, and eventually drive out other types of ads. Those are not nigeria princes asking you for "hlep", you can tell the guys behind it put in a lot of efforts and serious money, some made it like a trailer of _The Pursuit of Happyness_. There's no way Google or Facebook's AI could tell that they are suspicious schemes.

How's your situation, are you still learning and pursuing your own journey? I can totally relate to the feeling of being out of work but I believe strongly that our work is a calling and we must listen to our intuition on the journey to mastery of our art.

I am learning to be an independent content producer if that's a thing. But I have family and there's constant self-imposed pressure to pursue a regularly paid job. I am juggling between job applications and making things at the moment. I guess I really need to talk to people and think it through.

Your kind words give me a lot of support I need. Thank you.
