FBI Director Chastised by Wife for Being Common Internet Sucker
Robert Mueller promises to keep vigilantly fighting internet scammers. The FBI chief also promises not to be so gullible himself, online, which should be easy, since his wife just banned him from internet banking, for being a huge idiot.
It turns out the guy in charge of fighting online crime was nearly conned by online criminals: Mueller told a San Francisco audience today that he once began entering his personal information into a scammer's Web form in response to what appeared a "perfectly legitimate" email from his bank, The Register reports. Then, after being asked for his password, Mueller realized he'd made a huge mistake and changed all his passwords and eventually turned to his wife, and was like, ha ha, "teachable moment."
But she replied: "It is not my teachable moment. However, it is our money. No more internet banking for you!"
The point is, stop trying to use the internet for any sort of important business, people, because if Robert Mueller can't figure this crazy thing out, who can? Other than hackers, terrorists, children, and most humans outside of U.S. banks, credit card companies and the federal government?
