I know of a recent scam involved an individual scanning a QR code in a store, thinking it was for the restaurant's e-menu. However, the QR code had been tampered with by a hacker who replaced it with a sticker (QR code), redirecting the person to a malware site instead.

This incident underscores the increasing sophistication of cybercriminals exploiting technology for malicious purposes, emphasizing the importance of heightened awareness and caution in the digital age! 😖
