Important Scam Alert

This one always resurfaces around Easter.

You answer the phone only to hear a familiar sounding voice – like a parent or grandparent

Then your heart sinks as the message silkily flows, “How much will you pay not to have this show up at your front door?” Followed by the sounds of muffled laughter.

Noooooo!

No way you’re quick enough to block incoming images to a child’s texts, emails, Twitter, or Facebook accounts.

Who could not love the cuddly, fluffy, adorable bunny that quickly grows to giant size, eats electrical cords, quickly hops into becomes Mom’s chore basket, and lives forever and ever and ever…..

Meet their demands – whatever the cost.

Beware. There are variations.

Frequently with puppies or kittens.

Often around birthdays or start of summer.

Ah, the memories. We chortled. We texted.(© image)

Ah, revenge is sweet. (Insert muffled laughter here.)

So funny, bunny.

Note that smug, conspiring Easter bunny smile. Best get ready. They know where you live. Wishing you understood that resistance is hopeless. You cannot rip a bunny from a child once it’s in their arms. That’s written down somewhere. Oh, the joys of parenting.(USPD/commons.wikimedia.com)
