It is such an odd thing to have posted -- with detail in the reply to the OP. That's not how people post (at least it's not how I post). Like a strange test balloon. I looked up and found a recent article so I decided to edit the weird OP to make sense.

Anyway, I probably should have just deleted, but somehow deleting without explanation didn't seem right.

What is a bit sad is that I've developed courses on cybersecurity for various corporate clients. I have no excuse for being so lax with my non-financial accounts. As I said, I don't think I've updated my DU password for about 20 years and it was a wimpy password to start with. But I don't actually get what someone would gain by trying to post as me. Like I wouldn't notice??

IDK.

Still baffled in Seattle.
