Usually when an app offers you money, it's either because they want you to do something for them or because they're trying to trick you into giving out exactly that sort of information.

(She sighs.)

ADI gave you a fake social security number when you arrived here. Don't tell it to people-someone who knows that number can take out loans and credit cards in your name and leave you on the hook for paying them back.

Also, downloading all these apps is why your phone keeps making all that noise. They're trying to get your attention so that you'll use them.

They can't make me pay it back if they can't find me.

Huh, they never shut up. So they do tend to get my attention, but how do I get them to shut up?

Money from ADI is stored in an electronic account. Debt collectors can bill that directly.

(Wait ...does he even realize he has an account?

If he doesn't and is just using any physical cash he manages to get his hands on, he could be sitting on a lot of money. A part of her wants to try and steal it, but he is an ally and she's never had much use for cash. She supposes she might need to teach him to use an ATM...)

You can turn off notifications from apps, both individually and for all of them, in the settings.

(For now she'll just walk him through that.)

Yeah, had a bit of a spat with them over that. They weren't paying me real money for awhile. [He Karen-ed his way into getting someone how to get his paycheck out of the bank each time they get paid. Even if she did decide to rob his bank she'd find it completely empty.] Tried to tell me it was invisible or something stupid like that. I got them to give me real money now.
