Yes, but being about the same means ChatGPT could be used to create massive amounts or personalized phishing emails at a low cost in a very short time by automation. Basically doing what they do now, but even faster.
And with better spelling and punctuation.
No, those 'mistakes' are part of the phishing tactic. It weeds out those that are paying too much attention to the details.
Not a joke.
Cool. Also I'm not sure why but it appears that my original comment was removed.
Better spelling and punctuation is a bug, not a feature.
Bad spelling = people who miss those may be easy to fool.
I wonder how that would work. The last one I did some checking into had a bitcoin address and it (I really don't understand Bitcoin well) looked like the person moved the fake money from account to account over and over again.
