Verizon notified prepaid customers this week of a recent cyberattack that granted third-party actors access to their accounts, as reported earlier Tuesday by BleepingComputer. The attack occurred between Oct. 6 and Oct. 10 and affected 250 Verizon prepaid customers.

“We recently identified possible unauthorized activity involving about 250 prepaid wireless accounts. We secured these accounts and put in place additional measures to protect our customers from further unauthorized access or fraud,” Verizon said in a statement. “Verizon has notified the impacted customers and was advised on additional steps the customers can take to enhance their account security.”

The breach exposed the last four digits of customers’ credit cards used to make payments on their prepaid accounts. While no full credit card information was accessible, the information was enough to grant the attackers access to Verizon user accounts, which hold semi-sensitive data such as “name, telephone number, billing address, price plans, and other service-related information,” per a notice from Verizon.

Account access also potentially enabled attackers to process unauthorized SIM card changes on prepaid lines. Also known as SIM swappingunauthorized SIM card changes can allow for the transfer of an unsuspecting person’s phone number to another phone.

From there, the counterfeit phone can be used to receive SMS messages for password resets and user identification verifications on other accounts, giving attackers potential access to any account they have, or can guess, the username for. Consequently, Verizon recommended affected customers secure their non-Verizon accounts such as social media, financial,

Ben Simpson-Vernon, a veterinarian in England, went viral recently with two TikToks. The first listed the five dog breeds he’d never choose (sorry, pugs), and the second shared five dog breeds he would pick (yay for mutts!). Naturally, Simpson-Vernon had to turn his attention to our feline friends.

One of the vet’s newest videos explains the four cat breeds that he, as a veterinarian, would never choose. Three are due to health reasons, but one is pure personal preference. He also emphasized that these are breeds he would never buy, because he would consider giving homes to these cats if they were in a rescue situation where they needed to be adopted.

Read on (and for contrast, here’s the one type of cat Simpson-Vernon would get).

@ben.the.vet And now its the cats’ turn! 4 breeds I wouldn’t buy as a vet #learnontiktok#catlovers#miaow#veterinary#benthevet♬ Waiting For Heartache – BLVKSHP

Bengal cats

Simpson-Vernon praises the Bengal cat’s beautiful coat, but points out that it’s a hybrid between a domestic cat and a type of wild cat called an Asian leopard cat.

“So they’re still quite wild in terms of their behavior and temperament,” he says, noting that at the vet’s, this breed has earned a reputation for being “quite aggressive.” He also notes that this intelligent breed needs a lot of stimulation, and isn’t right for some families.

Sphynx cats

The Sphynx is a hairless cat, and certainly one of the most unusual in the feline

Been following the whole Try Guys situation with Ned Fulmer? So have Saturday Night Live writers, who apparently think the drama that’s befallen the popular YouTube prankster group and their former fellow members have crossed into melodrama terrain.

A skit from Saturday’s episode parodies a video in which the three remaining members of The Try Guys respond to former fellow Try Guy Fulmer being asked to leave the team after getting caught cheating on his wife with an employee.

The Try Guys — who have 8 million subscribers on YouTube — are so named for filming wacky stunts like trying on celebrity lingerie, drawing nude self-portraits and getting extremely stoned. Their actual video response to Fulmer being let go was intense, with a somber, emotional Keith Habersberger, Eugene Lee Yang and Zach Kornfeld going into more detail about the initial incident, the internal review involving HR and legal teams and the process that led to the departures.

In that video, posted earlier this week, the trio shares that Fulmer is being digitally excised from videos and removed from Try Guys merchandise. “We can’t talk about the details of the review, but suffice to say that Ned had engaged in conduct unbecoming of our team,” Habersberger says.

The SNL version kicks up the intensity a few dozen notches, with a CNN reporter played by Ego Nwodim appearing flummoxed about why The Try Guys are making headlines, and especially why a segment on President Biden’s Ukraine stance has to get interrupted to
