QANTAS Cyber Incident

Just saw on Qantas' website that they are offering "helpful tips on how to avoid being scammed online". That's really rich, coming from them. You, Qantas, it's you who got scammed because you were too stingy to properly secure OUR data (or sent it to some dodgy overseas "partner" to save a few bucks which is almost worse)! The last organisation I want scamming advice from is you! Gosh, blood pressure up... :mad:
 
Our household just got out first phish!!!
