| 6/23/26 | ![]() Is That CAPTCHA Real Or Is It Stealing Your Data? (2026/733) | You tick the box that says “I’m not a robot”, but instead of the usual puzzle, the page asks you to press a few keys on your keyboard to prove you are human. That request is the warning sign. In this Walkthrough Wednesday, Charly walks through a fake CAPTCHA attack that hijacks your clipboard to install information stealers, using a Malwarebytes article to show you what these screens look like and why the wording should put you off straight away.In this episode, Charly covers:✅ What a fake CAPTCHA screen looks like and the moment it stops behaving normally➡️ Why being asked to press Windows key R, Control V and Enter is never a normal verification step⚡ How the website quietly copies a command into your clipboard and what running it actually does⭐ The malware behind it, including Lumma Stealer and SecTopRAT❗ What to do if you see this, from leaving the site to clearing your clipboard✨ How Charly weighs up safety against convenience using different browsers and disabling JavaScriptIf a website ever asks you to run a command on your computer, stop and think twice. | — | ||||||
| 6/21/26 | ![]() Do You Really Need That App On Your Phone? (2026/732)|Online Business Manager and WordPress Expert | Nearly every service you use wants you to install their app. There’s an app for everything: your bank, your shopping, even your streaming. Do you actually need them all, or are they just giving providers more access to your phone than necessary?In this episode, Charly covers:✅ Most apps are just the website wrapped in a different container➡️ How a privacy-focused browser can replace many of the apps on your phone⚡ The permissions apps get that websites don’t, including contacts, camera, storage, and background data⭐ When installing an app genuinely makes sense and when it doesn’tBefore you install the next app, ask yourself: is this making things easier for you, or easier for them?Book a Free 30 minute Breakthrough Session: https://askcharlyleetham.com/book-me(1 per person only)***Follow us:Locals: https://askcharlyleetham.locals.comRumble: https://rumble.com/askcharlyleethamOdyssey: https://odysee.com/@askcharlyleetham:4YouTube: https://youtube.com/askcharlyleethamFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/askcharlyleethamTwitter: https://twitter.com/yourbizmgrInstagram: https://instagram.com/ask_charly_leethamLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/charlyleethamLinkedIn Company: https://www.linkedin.com/company/ask-charly-leetham/Spotify: https://askcharlyleetham.com/likes/rise-and-shineApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-manager/id1659738721iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ask-charly-leetham-online-105944212/Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/662f1e44-115d-4094-862b-efe9307e0df4/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-managerMusic and Credits to:Paradise Found is covered under Creative Commons.“Paradise Found”Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/https://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/licenses/ | — | ||||||
| 6/18/26 | ![]() Does Deleting An App Really Delete Your Data? (2026/731) | You deleted the app, so your data is gone too, right? Not necessarily. When you sign up for a service and hand over your details, that information lives on the company’s servers, not just your phone. Even if you stop using the app, your data could still be sitting there years later, and if that company gets breached, your details could be exposed.In this episode, Charly covers:✅ Why deleting an app doesn’t remove your data from the company’s servers➡️ How to think about the information you hand over when signing up⚡ Steps to log in and cleanse your account before deleting an app✨ How to request data removal under Australian privacy principles⭐ Why you should revoke app permissions before uninstalling☑️ How to track down old accounts through your app store and emails❗ Checking Sign in with Google, Apple, or Facebook for linked accountsTake the time to go through your phone and clean up properly.

| 6/16/26 | ![]() How Do You Set Up the Redirection Plugin in WordPress? (2026/730) | The Redirection plugin is a plugin that handles redirects, branded affiliate links, and 404 monitoring on your WordPress website.If you rename or delete a page, the plugin ensures that the old URL is redirected to the new one so visitors and search engines don’t hit a dead end, which is great for your SEO.

(2026/729) | If you are a small business owner wondering whether AI is about to make your skills obsolete, the biggest tech companies in the world just answered that question for you.

| 5/17/26 | ![]() What Do WordPress Plugin Acquisitions Mean For You? (2026/717) | The WordPress plugin market has gone through a wave of acquisitions. Financial buyers replaced founders, and the products changed – ads in your dashboard, price hikes, admin panels you can’t remove, and lock-in to ecosystems you didn’t choose. Now that you understand why that happened, the next step is simple: audit what you’re running and know who owns and supports every tool your business depends on.In this episode, Charly covers:✔️ How the WordPress plugin ecosystem works and why people in the community built tools like LearnDash, The Events Calendar, Cadence WP, and GiveWP➡️ What happened when private equity started acquiring these plugins during the COVID era⚡ Why the founders left after the acquisitions✨ What changed for users – dashboard ads, forced rebranding, workforce cuts, and websites now redirecting to Liquid Web❗ Why this pattern isn’t just a WordPress story – it’s what happens when financial buyers enter any ecosystem built on trust⭐ Why you should audit your WordPress plugin stack before next MondayThis is Part 1 of a series on the effect of private equity, mergers and acquisitions on the WordPress plugin ecosystem and what it means for business owners.Book a Free 30 minute Breakthrough Session: https://askcharlyleetham.com/book-me(1 per person only)***Follow us:Locals: https://askcharlyleetham.locals.comRumble: https://rumble.com/askcharlyleethamOdyssey: https://odysee.com/@askcharlyleetham:4YouTube: https://youtube.com/askcharlyleethamFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/askcharlyleethamTwitter: https://twitter.com/yourbizmgrInstagram: https://instagram.com/ask_charly_leethamLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/charlyleethamLinkedIn Company: https://www.linkedin.com/company/ask-charly-leetham/Spotify: https://askcharlyleetham.com/likes/rise-and-shineApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-manager/id1659738721iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ask-charly-leetham-online-105944212/Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/662f1e44-115d-4094-862b-efe9307e0df4/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-managerMusic and Credits to:Paradise Found is covered under Creative Commons.“Paradise Found”Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/https://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/licenses/ | — | ||||||
| 5/14/26 | ![]() Is Microsoft Edge Leaving Your Passwords Exposed In Memory? (2026/716) | If you’re using Microsoft Edge’s built-in password manager, your saved credentials may not be as safe as you think. A researcher has confirmed that Edge decrypts all saved passwords at startup and stores them in plain text in your computer’s memory – for the entire browser session.
