Clear, concise, and with respect. That seems exceptional for a modern parent.
Yeah, it’s funny. But, OP, please tell him he’s awesome for me.
Sounds like an engineer
That’s my roots. Maybe that’s why it appeals to me.

What gives him away is that he assumes you know how to call him. Scammers don’t do that and ask instead to send them your emails and password per Mail or text message. Totally not a scammer, busted at first glance.
Some scammers are getting into sophisticated targeting, it’s not outside the realm of possibility they’ve sim-swapped Dad’s phone and intentionally worded it like that knowing you’d call that number and they’d be able to intercept it. Hell these days if they are able to get just seconds of your dad’s voice they’d even be able to have a convincing AI voice on the other end
You’d have fallen for it lmao
Some might even have a dad joke generator…
Woah now, some tech is just pure science fiction

I wish my mother was like this,.I’d.actually read her messages. She just uses my phone number as her personal journal. I get dozens of messages a day about nothing. I have to mute her and check every now and then, scrolling through useless shit about—hang on, I’ll look at the last three topics; dogs and horses going to heaven, liking nature and not suburbia, the sermon at a mid-week church event—and make sure nothing important happened. I’ve told her to chill, it doesn’t work.
if you’re lucky enough to be nearby, try taking her out to the movies and coffee after, once a week, it helped my mom and she’s even got her own litl circle of ladies now so i don’t have to go with her if i’m too busy
My parents text me like once a week
many thanks dad
That looks exactly like how my dad sends email.
Does he call you Ian aswell?
Your dad has been hacked
I have a crush on that dad now
