We have all been there. It is 11:30 PM on a Tuesday. You are bored. You are scrolling. And then you see it. The colorful ring around the profile picture of someone you absolutely cannot be seen watching. Maybe it is an ex. Maybe it is a frenemy. Maybe it is your boss who called … Continue more
It’s the worst notification you can get. You look down at your phone. Your banking app says you just spent $1,200 at an electronics store in Miami. The problem? You live in London. Or Sydney.

We have all had that moment of pure panic. You are scrolling through your WhatsApp chats, trying to clear out an annoying spam message or archive an old conversation. You are moving too fast.
