## Caption

Have you been getting texts offering you $1,000 an hour for a remote job? Or even texts from the head of your company asking you to purchase Amazon gift cards? These text scams are getting increasingly common, and it’s all thanks to a Chinese crime syndicate that’s bigger than we can even imagine. Explain It to Me host Jonquilyn Hill talked to Wired technology reporter Matt Burgess to understand what exactly is going on. #scam #phish #texts #sms
