37-factor authentication: A mother’s answer to a nasty scamAmerica isn’t the only country being bombarded with spam texts. In Japan, a common scam targeting seniors involves a single text message that just says “It’s me. I need money.” The scammer will then ask for a modest sum, and many of the victims assume that it’s a child or grandchild in need. But one woman wasn’t about to take this scam lightly.
