We left Port Townsend Boat Haven Marina this morning at 0830 hours after refueling the most expensive fuel in all of the US, according to the fuel guy.

We arrived in Sequim Bay at 1230 hours and anchored for the night.

It seems to be a nice bay but we did not have time or desire to enjoy it because Pauline fell victim to hackers.

It started out that we bought a new iPad for our boating app.  Somehow we did not realize that the Wi-Fi only model does not have a built-in GPS so Pauline got online to find the number for Apple Support to sort it out.  It appeared that either the number is fake or that they piggybacked the call and pretended to be Apple Support technicians.  They had her download an app called AnyDesk so they could remotely access her phone.  Long story short, after about 2 hours of asking lots of questions and obtaining information that were totally irrelevant to the iPad issue, she gave away the phone IP address and the ICCID number, plus her Apple ID.  By the time we realized it was suspicious, we were already compromised.

So now, Pauline banking sign-in is frozen, and she may have to get a new phone number and SIM card.  The Apple ID and password is already changed but she is afraid to use her phone right now.

So, all in all, not a very good day.  As a result, we may be staying here for a few days while we sort all the issues out.  Oh and we are returning the iPad that started all these problems and getting a new one with Wi-FI and Cellular, which we should have gotten in the first place.
