Mission Impossible: My Phone is Haunted (and No, I’m Not Ghosting You)
Well, I haven’t blogged in a while, so here it is! If you notice me following you one second and unfollowing you the next, please don't think I’m playing high school mind games or that I’ve suddenly become a "social media monitor" obsessed with your aesthetic. Trust me, I have way too much of my own drama to be worried about yours!
The truth is, things are getting a little Matrix-y behind the scenes. 🕶️
The Spy Who "Link"ed Me
I’m currently the lead protagonist in a techno-thriller I never auditioned for. There are people out there trying to track my location, snag IP addresses, and basically treat my digital life like an all-you-can-eat buffet. It’s wild. I’m out here being the victim of the weirdest stuff!
I’m unfollowing people because I don’t want you to be a target. If these digital creeps see us connected, they might try to come for you too. It’s not "it’s not you, it’s me"—it’s literally "it’s not you, it’s the hackers."
Click Bait & Switch
Y'all, be careful out there. If you see a link on Google or anywhere else that looks even slightly "off"—especially those shortened URLs that look like a cat walked across a keyboard—do not touch it. > Pro-Tip: If the URL doesn't look standard or seems fishy, keep your thumbs away!
I’ll admit it: even with my computer knowledge, I made a mistake. I accidentally clicked one of those shady links, and now it’s like my phone has been "paired" with a ghost. They clearly didn't realize who they were messing with, but it still sucks. I wouldn’t wish this digital headache on my worst enemy.
I’m going to try to get some screenshots of these suspicious links and maybe do a video to give you guys the full breakdown when I have a second to breathe. Until then, stay safe, stay skeptical of weird links, and don't take the "unfollow" personally—I'm just protecting the squad!
