    You can trick anyone into doing stupid things. That’s why scam and phishing exists. I also remember tricking kids on counterstrike to format their C: drive to “activate cheats”

      Sure, but it’s infinitely harder on iOS to install malware, I’m sure you’d agree.

      It’s also easier to track down the publisher of a scam app to figure out who’s doing the scamming.

      Simply put, I have less to worry about with older folks in my life using iOS than something else.
