On some level, you have to hand it to these cyber criminals. They've come up with a scam that, according to the FBI, is so convincing almost anyone buying or building a new home or renovating one is likely to fall for it. Here's how to avoid it. In this new scam, online criminals impersonate city and county planning officials with a phishing campaign designed to trick you into paying for fake permit fees.
Criminals tap into publicly available local records of zoning and building applications and get the details of your project. Only then do they strike. The email looks exactly as if it came from your local planning commission office. There is, of course, a link to pay for the fake permits. Do not click the link. Check first with your local offices to verify. Remember, once the money is sent, you will never get it back. Tired of all the AI hype? That's why you need to get my new free weekly newsletter.

I am trying to find a AI that I can use that would compare two different home insurance policies for me. I'm a having to go through and switch to a new provider. And I've got a couple of PDFs, but I'd like to sort through, read them, and maybe give me a quick comparison or summary of which one is different and how.
Boy, I'll tell you, that is like the best use of AI ever, okay?
What is the fake government permit scam and how does it work?
Because especially when you're looking at these policies and they're like pages and pages and pages, right? Oh boy, who wants to read all that if you could even understand most of it, right? All right. So what you do is you have the two PDFs. What I like to do is keep them right on my desktop because it makes it easy for you to find them. And so you fire up ChatGPT and then there's a right where you will type in the prompt is that there's a plus sign. And so you tap or click that. And then one of the options will say upload a file.
