Most scams are absurd - so absurd that one wonders how anyone falls for them at all; yet if no one falls for them, how do the scammers make money?

I woke up one morning to an email from my friend Alex that said she'd had her bag stolen. Ordinarily, I'm quite quick on the uptake, but - maybe because of the way it was worded - I immediately replied, 'What??????' As soon as I hit send, I realised I was being scammed. But then they replied, and I thought, 'Well, why not?'

That's the worst health condition you can have, not being alive.

Crazy stuff happens when you start replying to scam emails. It's really difficult, and I highly recommend we do it.

Despite our ever-connective technology, neither Skype nor Facebook - not even a telephone call - can come close to the joy of being with loved ones in person.

The Internet is an actor's best friend.

I'm a total Luddite when it comes to gadgets and technology.

It's going to be interesting to see how society deals with artificial intelligence, but it will definitely be cool.
