I stayed 12 00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:57.039 up late for it, and then they end up losing 13 00:00:57.079 --> 00:00:59.520 and I was like, wait, I stayed up for that. 14 00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.840 I know that producer and is happy.

So let's 20 00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:24.719 get right to it. Here's what's ahead on wake up call. 21 00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:29.040 Hurricane Milton has strengthened again to a category five storm. 22 00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:31.959 Sustained winds are at one hundred and sixty five miles 23 00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:34.120 per hour as it heads toward the east coast of Florida. 24 00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:37.959 The National Hurricane Center has expanded storm surge warnings and 25 00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:40.920 hurricane warnings into Georgia. We're going to be talking with 26 00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:45.319 ABC's Jim Ryan get the latest from Florida in less 27 00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:48.400 than five minutes. People who live on the Palace Verdes 28 00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:52.640 Peninsula affected by land movement will get warning waivers and 29 00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:59.280 refunds on fees for installing alternative energy sources that include propane, solar, 30 00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:02.480 and energy storage systems. The motion was approved by the 31 00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:05.799 county Board of Supervisors yesterday, weeks after hundreds of homeowners 32 00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:09.960 had their gas and electricity shut off. Kfi's John Cobalt 33 00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:13.960 got to talk to former President Trump yesterday ahead of 34 00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.560 his rally in the Coachella Valley that's happening on Saturday. 35 00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:18.479 We're going to play back part of that interview and 36 00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:20.560 tell you where you can get tickets if you're interested. 37 00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:24.919 KTLA's tech reporter Rich DeMuro is going to tell us 38 00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:27.240 about some of the really good Prime Day deals and 39 00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:29.719 how you can actually find them. That's coming up at 40 00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:32.759 five point twenty and before the top of the hour. 41 00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:36.000 The La County Sheriff's Department has some new tools to 42 00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:37.840 fight crime. We're going to find out what it is, 43 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:40.759 how they work, and how you might be able to 44 00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:43.240 help catch the bad guys. Let's get started with some 45 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:44.919 of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four 46 00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:47.960 hour newsroom. Five people have been killed in the crash 47 00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:50.960 of a small plane near the airport on Catalina Island. 48 00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.560 Officials at the La County Sheriff's Avalon station say they 49 00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:58.080 got a nine to one one SOS emergency notification from 50 00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.159 a cell phone just after eight last night. The wreckage 51 00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:03.199 of a twin engine plane was found about a mile 52 00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:06.120 away from the airport. The five adults were declared dead 53 00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:09.199 at the scene. The Avalon airport known as the Airport 54 00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:11.439 in the Sky because of its location at an elevation 55 00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:14.199 of more than sixteen hundred feet. Police say the man 56 00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:18.000 who stabbed a Santa Monica police officer outside police headquarters 57 00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:22.360 had a stolen box of knives from target or had 58 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:25.599 stolen a box of knives from Targets just minutes before 59 00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:28.639 the attack. Police say the officer was stabbed late Saturday afternoon. 60 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.960 The officer shot and killed the stabber. News brought to 61 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:35.759 you by ruterhroo dot com. Counties in Florida are offering 62 00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:39.039 buses to help take people to shelters ahead of Hurricane Milton. 63 00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:43.919 Meteorologist Ginger Z says millions of people are under evacuation orders. 64 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:45.439 Think we're going to see a lot of wind damage 65 00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:47.319 and also up to eight ten inches of rain could 66 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:51.319 cause inland flash flooding. Some people are insisting on riding 67 00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.719 out the storm. Milton is expected to make landfall late 68 00:03:54.759 --> 00:03:57.960 tonight or early tomorrow near the Tampa Bay area. The 69 00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.360 area has not had a direct hit from a major 70 00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:04.400 storm in one hundred years. A bill to pause California's 71 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.639 sixty cent gas tax for a year has been blocked. 72 00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:10.960 Republican State Senator ros Lisia Ohoa Bogue says her bill 73 00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.240 was blocked for being outside the scope of the governor's 74 00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:16.720 special session on gas prices. The senator says she disagrees. 75 00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:19.680 She says addressing gas prices is an important step for 76 00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:21.800 lowering the cost of living in California. 77 00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:25.079 It is too expensive to live in California. This is 78 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:27.959 why we have so many of our young graduates. 79 00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.560 Leaving the state, are newly retired leaving the state. 80 00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:34.199 Meanwhile, bill moving through the special session would require refineries 81 00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:37.839 to maintain a minimum supply of fuel to avoid shortages 82 00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.680 that drive up prices. Blake Trolley kay if I Knews. 83 00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:46.240 Let's get to ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim Ryan in Florida. 84 00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:49.240 Milton had lost a little bit of steam and then 85 00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:51.959 regained it, and then we're getting word that maybe it's 86 00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:55.600 coming down just a little bit, but still a massive storm. 87 00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:59.800 It is massive and extremely powerful on right now the 88 00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.040 it's listed as a category four hurricane. It had been 89 00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:06.399 five overnight and into this morning, but still a very 90 00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:09.680 very powerful storm two hundred and fifty miles southwest of 91 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:13.079 where I am here at Tampa. The category four winds 92 00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:15.639 will start to increase along the west coast of Florida, 93 00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:18.480 and then this afternoon, we don't know, you know what 94 00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:21.839 the categorization will be at landfall, but suffice it to 95 00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:24.639 say the winds will be powerful. The storm surge is 96 00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:26.000 really the big concern. 97 00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:26.319 Amy. 98 00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:29.759 It's like twelve to fifteen feet of storm surge at 99 00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:31.680 the point of landfall, which will either be here in 100 00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:34.040 Tampa or maybe a little south around Sarasota. 101 00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:36.879 Okay, I want to ask you about the storm surge 102 00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:39.360 because I was thinking about this. So when the storm 103 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:44.079 surge comes, it's because is it because the winds are 104 00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:48.399 blowing so quickly in that circular motion that it displaces 105 00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:52.279 that water right in the underneath the storm and pushes 106 00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:52.959 it out. 107 00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:54.680 Exactly, That's exactly right. 108 00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:56.639 It's like it's walking through a puddle, you know, and 109 00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.759 you create a wake when you step into a puddle 110 00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:03.079 in that it pushes the water in every direction. And 111 00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:05.199 that's what's happening with this storm and what happens with 112 00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:08.720 any storm like this. So the water is shoved, literally shoved, 113 00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:13.399 you know, like scooped on land twelve fifteen feet high 114 00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:16.079 in some places, and you can imagine. So that's easily 115 00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:20.160 inundating a one story home or and doesn't do much 116 00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:22.079 good to a two story a three story home either. 117 00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:23.959 That's why I think so many people have heated the 118 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:26.240 mornings and gotten out of here. The evacuation orders have 119 00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:28.519 been in place for a couple of days, and here 120 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:32.680 in Tampa the streets are essentially vacant because everyone has 121 00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:33.240 gone away. 122 00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:37.839 Well, well, the mayor didn't mince words at all. She said, 123 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:39.480 if you don't leave, you're going to die. 124 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:43.319 Yeah, you're gonna die. Storm of the Century, And that's accurate, 125 00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.360 I think, because the last time there was a storm 126 00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:47.720 this powerful striking the west coast of Florida was in 127 00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:51.800 nineteen twenty one. That was deep into the last century, 128 00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:54.360 you know, before my dad was born. 129 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:54.720 There's more. 130 00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:57.959 You know, It's amazing how far back you have to 131 00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:00.800 go to figure out how when the last time a 132 00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.920 storm like this came ashore on the west coast, And 133 00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:06.680 so here it comes, and I think people are heating 134 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:07.720 those warnings. 135 00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:10.199 And think about how one hundred years ago, how much 136 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:13.879 worse it and probably more deadly. It was because we 137 00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:17.199 didn't have you know, we couldn't track the storms, we 138 00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:19.639 couldn't predict when they were coming, and that kind of stuff. 139 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:21.519 So I bet that people went, oh, this is a 140 00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:24.040 really nasty rainstorm, and then it just got worse and worse. 141 00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:26.120 Well, on top of that, you didn't have way to 142 00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.360 warn anybody. There's a fantastic book about the Galveston Storm 143 00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:32.600 of nineteen hundred and the guy who saw it coming 144 00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:34.800 with the weather Service, but he couldn't warn anybody. We 145 00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:38.040 didn't have sirens or have the internet or anything. So 146 00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:40.839 the poor guy isac storm. Is any of that movement 147 00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:41.720 in the name of that book? 148 00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:44.800 Okay? Hey, So with a ten to fifteen feet of 149 00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:48.000 storm surge expected, is there is there anything that residents 150 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.879 can do to prepare their homes or do they just 151 00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:53.040 have to leave and hope for the ut. 152 00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:54.879 There when they get back. Yeah, that's kind of it. 153 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:57.680 You know, they've they've done what they could by putting 154 00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:01.199 sandbags around the doors, the special the garage doors. They've 155 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.040 taped up the windows against the wind, and that's pretty 156 00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:08.079 much all you can do. You've seen video aerial video 157 00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:11.120 of era areas that have been struck by hurricanes, and 158 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:14.519 the whole house is essentially gone, with one or two 159 00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:17.279 that are still standing if it's up on stilts. But 160 00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:19.399 beyond that, yeah, there's just not a whole lot you 161 00:08:19.399 --> 00:08:21.959 can do but protect your own life and the life 162 00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:25.519 of your pets and the stuff that you value. 163 00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:25.920 Well. 164 00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:30.160 And now, you, Jim, are in Tampa. You're riding out 165 00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:32.720 the storm. There are you in a special location. 166 00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:35.919 Staying here in downtown Tampa, and we'll see what happens. 167 00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:38.279 But I've done this a long time and kind of 168 00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:41.399 process and a system that works pretty well in communication 169 00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:44.759 that but because if I lose communication, I'm another storm 170 00:08:44.840 --> 00:08:45.759 victims stranded here. 171 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:49.279 Okay, Well, we'll hope that you don't lose communication and 172 00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:51.279 that you are safe and we will talk to you 173 00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:54.080 again very soon. It's expected to make landfall tonight or 174 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:55.200 tomorrow morning, right, correct. 175 00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:58.120 Yeah, it's a wide window right now between nine pm 176 00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:00.360 Eastern and maybe one or two o'clock morning. 177 00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.519 All right, Will you stay safe and we'll talk to 178 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:06.720 you soon. All right, thank you, ABC's Jim Ryan. Now, 179 00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:08.440 let's go back to some of the stories coming out 180 00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:10.960 of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Former President Trump 181 00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:13.399 says the first thing he wants to do as president, 182 00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:15.519 if reelected, is close the border. 183 00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.080 They don't need bills and all the other nonsense they've 184 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:20.840 been talking about. In the meantime, they're flying people into 185 00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:22.440 a big jet plane. 186 00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:26.799 Trump told kfi's John Cobelt Show yesterday the border was 187 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:30.120 secure while he was president, but President Biden and Vice 188 00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:32.360 President Harris reversed his policies. 189 00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.279 All they had to do is keep it going the 190 00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:36.960 way it was. We had remained in Mexico, we had 191 00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:39.240 all things that nobody said you could get. 192 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:41.440 He says he thinks the border is a bigger issue 193 00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:44.840 than inflation and the economy. Trump will be in southern 194 00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:49.360 California on Saturday for a rally in Coachella, California. Democratic 195 00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:52.480 Congressman Adam Schiff and former Dodger Steve Garvey have meant 196 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:54.759 for a debate as they run for the Senate seat 197 00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.039 formerly held by Diane Feinstein. One of the issues they 198 00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:00.080 talked about last night was the cost of living and 199 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.600 its effect on housing. Garvey said, things have gotten worse 200 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:04.639 in the last four years. 201 00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:07.240 What's suppressed the people right from the beginning day one 202 00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:10.440 of the Biden administration was to shut off energy. When 203 00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:13.399 you shut off energy, the rip effect that has went 204 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.799 to the living room table to the gas station, the 205 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:17.879 ability to save. 206 00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:22.000 Shift says building affordable housing would be his first goals. 207 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:24.480 I'm supporting a low income housing tax credit that would 208 00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:27.399 incentivize the development of hundreds of thousands of new units 209 00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:28.240 in California. 210 00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:29.960 We also have to get. 211 00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:33.039 Local communities to approve housing much more quickly. 212 00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:36.120 The debate hosted by ABC seven, was the only one 213 00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:38.919 for Shift and Garvey before the election, which is now 214 00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:42.080 less than four weeks away.

During their debate, hosted by KNX 217 00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.279 News and The La Times. Hawkman says Gascon's record is 218 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.720 one of the public safety failures. 219 00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:59.679 Violent crimes, property crimes, hate crimes, shoplifting, human. 220 00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:02.759 Trafficking is up either double digits or triple digits since 221 00:11:02.759 --> 00:11:03.440 he started. 222 00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:07.200 Gascone says Hawkman has a dystopian view of the community. 223 00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:10.600 When you listen to my opponen, you're often listening to 224 00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:15.480 code talk for mass incarceration. You're often listening to someone 225 00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:19.559 that believes from a very privileged point that he has 226 00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:21.559 the answer for the rest of our community. 227 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.879 A recent poll shows Hakman with a thirty point lead 228 00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:29.200 over Gascone. LA's city budget is facing challenges. Just three 229 00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:30.559 months into the fiscal year. 230 00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:33.360 The amount of money allocated to settle lawsuits one hundred 231 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:37.240 million dollars, has already been exhausted. Geltman. Bob Blumenfield, who 232 00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:40.120 chairs the budget committee, says LA's reserve fund has also 233 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:42.919 dropped a low four percent of the general budget. 234 00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:44.559 Which is dangerously low. 235 00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:48.440 Our reserve fund should be at ten percent, but at 236 00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:49.919 the very least at five percent. 237 00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.080 The city council yesterday approved another three million dollars in 238 00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:56.240 legal settlements.

A technical issue with the entertainment system on 252 00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:42.919 the flight from Sydney to Japan meant that people couldn't 253 00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.600 choose what they watched, so they were stuck watching Daddy 254 00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:50.399 Oh with Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn. Crew members turned 255 00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:53.200 it off about an hour later. The Flying Kangaroo has 256 00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:56.279 apologized to passengers on that flight.

The Dodgers are in San 258 00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:02.480 Diego for Game four of the National League Division Series 259 00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:05.039 after last night six to five heartbreaker of a loss 260 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.720 to the Padres.

The property below freeways belongs to the state, 269 00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:39.080 so apparently there's some confusion about who should be policing 270 00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:42.159 the area. More than a dozen states, including California, have 271 00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:45.600 sued TikTok. The state Attorney's General claimed the app is 272 00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:49.320 designed to get young people addicted to it.

So check 317 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:50.360 it out. 318 00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:54.200 That's just one one little thing you can do absolutely Okay. 319 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:59.919 So let's talk Amazon Prime Day, because I know there's deals, 320 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:01.519 but how do we find them? 321 00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:05.600 Yes, so today is the second day of Amazon Prime Day. 322 00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:07.720 I think Amazon has actually made it a lot better 323 00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:11.279 and easier to find deals, and a lot of things are. 324 00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:13.080 Seemingly a good deal. 325 00:16:13.320 --> 00:16:15.840 So if you go to their Amazon Prime, Amazon dot 326 00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:18.440 Com slash Prime Big Deal Days, they actually have an 327 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.000 easy way to look for these things they've got for you, 328 00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.480 which is like personalized. If you've got the Lightning deals 329 00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:25.799 deals and our twenty five dollars, then they've got this 330 00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:28.159 new this year top one hundred deals, which I actually 331 00:16:28.200 --> 00:16:31.159 find very useful. So going there right now, the top 332 00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:36.039 deal is a Apple Watch se second generation for twenty 333 00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:37.639 eight percent off. Let's see what the prices on that 334 00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:39.440 one hundred and ninety nine bucks. Pretty good for that, 335 00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:42.320 you know, So you can look through those if you're 336 00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:44.759 just looking to you know, spend your money. I also 337 00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:46.960 like to look at the up at the top where 338 00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:49.200 it says by again, this will show you all the 339 00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:52.000 stuff that you've purchased in the past on Amazon. And 340 00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:54.200 again they make it really easy because they have a 341 00:16:54.240 --> 00:16:57.000 banner that's red. So if you look for the big 342 00:16:57.039 --> 00:16:59.639 red banner near the price tag, it'll say something like 343 00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.639 Prime Big Deal, and that'll tell you that something is 344 00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:05.240 on sale for Prime Day. So those are my main 345 00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:07.599 two ways of finding deals. The other thing is looking 346 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:10.160 the saved items in your cart, and then to check 347 00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:15.480 the prices, go to a website like Camelcamelcamel dot com 348 00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:17.640 and so once you find something you want to buy, 349 00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:20.400 you take the URL of that item, you plug it 350 00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:22.799 into the Camel website and then it will tell you 351 00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:25.960 the previous lowest price because sometimes these things are on sale, 352 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:27.519 but it's not like the lowest price. You know, it's 353 00:17:27.559 --> 00:17:30.200 always on sale, right, So that's a way to fact check. 354 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:34.079 Okay, And is it camel like caml or there vowels 355 00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:34.480 in there? 356 00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:37.240 Nope, it's just the same way Camel camel camel, just 357 00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:39.319 like you would if you were riding a camel. 358 00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:41.640 I guess, okay, perfect. I actually have a couple of 359 00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:43.400 things that I've got my eye on, so I'm going 360 00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:46.480 to do that after I get off the air. I 361 00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:48.319 love this how they just come up with new ways 362 00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:50.880 to scam you all the time. And this one involves 363 00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:54.200 someone emailing a photo of your house to you that 364 00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:55.119 we need to watch out for. 365 00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:58.279 Yeah, and this is the downside side. Note, I don't 366 00:17:58.279 --> 00:18:00.240 know if you're getting all these like texts that say 367 00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:02.599 like hello, hey, do you want a job? Like all 368 00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:06.000 these like yeah, really lame. Oh they're so annoying. But anyway, 369 00:18:06.200 --> 00:18:08.720 it's all because our information is out there. And like 370 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:11.279 every time these hackers get like a fresh batch of 371 00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:13.359 like good phone numbers and stuff like that Big AT 372 00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:16.000 and T hacked a couple of months ago, you know, 373 00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:18.000 they use them and they send things out. And the 374 00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:20.920 same thing's happening with this new email scam, but they're 375 00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:23.359 doing something interesting. So it's a it's a twist on 376 00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:26.119 this sextortion scam where they say, hey, we see you 377 00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:28.160 at your computer and you're doing bad things and we're 378 00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:30.640 going to tell everyone, and you know, just send us, 379 00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:32.960 you know, a thousand dollars in bitcoin. This will all 380 00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:35.240 go away. I mean, there's so many red flags there. 381 00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:38.359 But the thing you need. The thing they're doing that's 382 00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:41.240 different is they're including a picture of your house because 383 00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:43.839 they've gotten so much information about us, right, not just 384 00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:46.000 our phone number, not just our email. Now they have 385 00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:49.640 our passwords, they also have our addresses, they have our socials, 386 00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:52.079 so they're using this information to kind of piece together 387 00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:56.079 better emails that scare us more so. It's it's getting 388 00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:58.400 a little bit trickier to like understand what's real and 389 00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:00.000 what's fake out there. 390 00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:01.039 But this one is clearly fake. 391 00:19:01.519 --> 00:19:04.279 Okay, good dinner, So don't fall for it. You know, 392 00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:07.160 I don't. I get stuff, and even when it like 393 00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:11.160 comes from my bank, I rarely click through on it. 394 00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:12.720 It's like, here, check your credit score, and I'm like, 395 00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:13.839 you could be a scam. 396 00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:17.119 Yeah, no, that's smart. I totally appreciate that. 397 00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:20.160 I actually have a text I got from AT and 398 00:19:20.240 --> 00:19:22.799 T that's like, hey, we need to upgrade your equipment. 399 00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:25.759 And I'm like, not so fast, what's the scam here? 400 00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:28.240 They're like, no, actually, we need to upgrade your equipment. 401 00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:31.960
