Oh, Dear: You are a good friend to tell her to be careful. I was scammed on

Amazon. Somehow, they hijacked Amazon's number. Something happened to

my order and they offered those gift cards as a way to make it up. Don't ever

buy those gift cards on Amazon. I was able to get some of the money back,

but not all. I get emails about dating, etc. I never open them. I just delete.

Take Care :-)

Lynn, I am sorry you got hijacked thru Amazon. Hope you changed all your information and passwords. If your computer has been compromised reset the router some the hacking was thru there and do a fresh install of the operating system check if allow remote stuff etc. Alot of people who used LastPass and they got hacked. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com they have security stuff there to keep up to date. Even Apple had problems too Windows problems too. Linux Suse or Red Hat are a little more secure enterprise Ubuntu that might be an option; there are many flavors install on 32 or 64 gb size load and try it out if it is liked.
