It is an humbling experience the moment when you accept that getting hacked is something that can happen to anyone, including the best of us. No one is too good not to be hacked.

I work in payments and yet I once gave my card (and 3DS auth!) to a phisher. Thankfully I realized what had happened pretty quickly and immediately deactivated the card. But the fact that I went through the whole process before realizing was pretty harrowing. For all I know, that might not have been the first time.
