Morgan Wallen Fan Scammed Out of $18,000

A Texas woman learned the hard way that celebrities don’t need your money after she was scammed out of $18,000 by someone pretending to be Morgan Wallen online.

What happened?

  • She sent Apple Music gift cards to "Morgan Wallen."

  • Then, she handed over her bank details and social security number.

  • The scammer took over $18,000 from her accounts.

When asked why she fell for it, she admitted: “I needed validation at the time.” 😬

Moral of the story? Celebs don’t ask for gift cards. Ever.

People Are Getting Emotionally Attached to ChatGPT, Study Finds

A new study from OpenAI and MIT Media Lab suggests that some people are developing emotional connections with ChatGPT, with signs of:

  • Preoccupation (thinking about ChatGPT when not using it).

  • Withdrawal symptoms (feeling uneasy when not chatting).

  • Mood changes (happiness or distress based on responses).

While most people don’t engage emotionally, those who use ChatGPT more often tend to feel lonelier and react emotionally to subtle changes in the AI’s tone.

Basically, some users are starting to see ChatGPT as a “friend.” 🤖💙

North Carolina Man Wears Bear Costume to Scare Off a Real Bear

An Asheville, NC resident took wildlife control into his own hands by dressing up as a bear to chase away a black bear in his backyard.

How did it go?

  • The real bear stared him down before finally running away.

  • The plan worked this time, but experts warn that challenging a bear can be dangerous.

So, while this might be a funny viral moment, it’s probably not the safest method for dealing with wildlife. 🐻😂
