The audio book was great to listen to while driving. Having witnessed friends and family fall prey to online scams, I found this book to be a much needed resource. It's not just informative and comforting guide in these digitally treacherous times. Kudos to R.J. Jones for putting together such a comprehensive guide. I have ordered one for my Dad, maybe now I won't get those "my computer says it's broken calls"..
