OP sounds like they have seen a plot twist or two during their time on this planet

And the scam industry. Previously the scammers had spent long hours on the phone with my father to get to his bank account (must have been frustrating that it’s usually empty), now he has anydesk and they can be more efficient. To bad because he enjoyed the attention.

I’ve been waiting for it but it looks like they have overdone the plot a bit. A portal?
