Beware Google results: Call Kurtis Investigates: Placer County couple with baby scammed escaping Maui. They Googled for the Southwest Airlines phone number, which gave them a scammer that hijacked their flight credits and left them without flights. Which echoes my experience buying theater tickets.
Here's the big takeaway: Never trust the top three to four Google search results. They are usually sponsored; essentially, ads anyone can take out. Scammers take advantage of that, and of you, especially after a disaster. Call the wrong number or click the wrong link, you could end up scammed.
