Reminds me of an advanced version of the old Dropbox where you could quickly host static sits from the finder. Was the best thing about Dropbox. Of course they killed it.

Dropbox was amazing. The ability to share a url to any HTML file basically made the service a micro blog host.

Of course they then added “productivity” tools and removed the actually productive features like sharing HTML.

I’ve moved to Google too but still prefer the Dropbox GUI.

Interesting. You think it’s a deliberate verbal IQ filter implemented by the scammers?

I’m always amazed that just slightly better grammar would increase the scammers success rate by miles.

There is no way I would read the correspondence as legit, but it’s not bad and given the return on the scam it’s wild that they don’t slightly improve that step.
