∗∗∗ FBI warns of fake verification schemes targeting dating app users ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
The FBI is warning of fake verification schemes promoted by fraudsters on online dating platforms that lead to costly recurring subscription charges. [..] It starts with fraudsters approaching victims on a dating app or site and developing a romantic rapport. This lays the ground for requesting to take the conversation outside the platform onto a supposedly safer communications tool. At this stage, the fraudster sends a link to the victim that will take them to a seemingly legitimate verification platform where the victim will have to verify they're not a sexual offender.

[..] Of the 4.79 million imageless Docker Hub repositories uncovered, 3.2 million of them are said to have been used as landing pages to redirect unsuspecting users to fraudulent sites as part of three broad campaigns.

---------------------------------------------
Beim Schreiben unserer Stellungnahmen zum Entwurf des NISG 2024 habe ich mir die Paragrafen, die uns betreffen, genauer angesehen. Diesmal nicht mit dem Blickwinkel „macht das Sinn“, sondern mit Fokus auf die Formulierungen. Das erinnert mich ein bisschen an die Zeit, als ich bei der Erstellung von RFCs mitgearbeitet habe und da auch bei Reviews jedes Wort genau auf mögliche Fehldeutungen abgeklopft habe. Ich hatte beim Lesen drei Dokumente offen: den Gesetzesentwurf, die Richtlinie in der deutschen Version und auch die englische Fassung. Und viele der schlechten Formulierungen waren keine Erfindungen aus Wien, sondern wurden schon in Brüssel erfunden. Ich will das hier dokumentieren.
