Just a reminder of how fucked we all are any time a social engineering attacker wants to target us.

I once thought I was safer since I don't even have an American address anymore and have been living abroad for years.

Nah, Amazon customer support answered an attacker's "so where was my last item shipped to" question after they authenticated by giving the support rep an address I used as a shipping address for one item almost 10 years ago.

The poor kid in TFA was doing some free social engineering pen testing.
