There are certainly many changes occurring constantly with how virals are constructed. They need to evolve with the people who get’s tricked by them, basically to keep up with the modern world’s pace.
What was a good idea a month ago, could now be obsolete, and easy to find out. Some, long time ago, all it took was a simple “name matching” quiz, and it spread like a virus.
