Scam at work

Had excitement at work this week. Advisor received a calendar invite with an attachment stating, "Invoice for your Cryptocurrency purchase".

Yeah, that would be a scam since all purchases for investments are made directly not on credit and my advisors don't buy cryptocurrency, they purchase stocks and bond funds selected by the corporate office. Problem is because advisor reported the invite as Phishing instead of responding with accept or decline, we can't remove it from the calendar. Coworker called the corporate office to ask if our system is being compromised with this calendar invite. They assured us without a response; no compromising took place. We just have to ignore the calendar heading.

Lesson here: Read your calendar invites before accepting or declining.

Ugh. Have a cold. Thank goodness got my farmers market work done. Just have to finish Halloween collection accessories for the website.

Update: Finally finished my Halloween Collection. Tomorrow, I get to make reels and posts to share my designs.
