But it just shows that this could happen to anyone at any time and be as cautious as you can be.

So, you know, I was thinking about this too.

And I was like, what could I have done differently?

What might I do differently going forward?

And in this case, I might freeze my cards if I'm not actively using them.

That's a good tip, Elizabeth.

But I don't really see how I can change my behavior.

I'm already being really careful with all of this.

And if anything, maybe I'll just monitor my statements even more regularly, although that might be difficult to do because I'm looking at my account balances like every day, pretty much.

So just staying on top of it is what we have to do, basically.

Yeah, yeah.

So do you plan to do anything differently after your experience, Elizabeth?

I really like that.

Something that I'm trying to focus on in my spending habits is creating more friction because online shopping is designed to be as seamless as possible and so they can get our money as easily as possible.

And if you just insert more friction, like delaying looking at a website or making sure that you do have it spelled correctly before you hit go and your address bar, that can create just a little more friction that can stop you from spending money that you don't need to spend, as we are all susceptible to doing.

And also, in this case, just going to a website that's not what you think it is.

My hand is down there.

I do not do that nearly as often as I should.

And yeah, that's a good idea.

Yeah.
