Creator's Key Takeaways

they're looking for people my age who might not be quite computer savvy who might have not you know really grown up in a lot of this stuff

never ever ever do that because they're not going to transfer funds and well I I'm not going to say that I'm not going to say that because I've seen people give the information

especially don't keep posting online your information it's great to say you're going on a cruise you don't need to say when where what the date is what the ports are
