## Resource

Video - https://youtu.be/eGtqzHNeIdE 🔐 When an account gets hacked or locked, panic can make anyone reach for the fastest help available. But not everyone offering “recovery help” is there to help. In Cyber-Bob’s Cyber Safety Tip #130, Bob The Cyber-Guy takes a closer look at account recovery scams — where criminals pretend to be helpful experts while trying to take advantage of stressed users. A simple reminder to slow down, verify the source, and recover accounts the safe way. Stay safe, stay skeptical, and always go through the official recovery process. 🛡️ Stay safe, stay secure, stay curious — and remember my friends, you’re never too old to outsmart a scammer. 👋 Created by Norbert (Bob) Gostischa with a little help from ChatGPT, NotebookLM Slide Deck, and ScreenPal.
