Each lesson is about two minutes: the same scam shown for a teen, a parent, and a grandparent — three tells, the one move, then a quick “real or scam?” drill. Press play — sound on.
Every common scam, one short lesson each — built to watch and share across your whole family. Jump to the one you need; each ends with a scored drill so you can test your eye.
A cloned voice — a “grandkid,” a “battle buddy,” a “boss” — calls in a panic and needs money right now.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A text says your account is locked. The link is almost right — and the login page just steals your password.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A warm new friend or match who moves fast — then needs money, or has a “can’t-miss” crypto tip.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A prize, a refund, a giveaway you never entered — that only needs a small “fee” or your card to release.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A scary “virus” popup or a call from “support” that wants remote access to your device.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A QR code on a parking meter, a flyer, or an email — that sends you to a look-alike page to log in or pay.
▶ Watch & take the drill →AI-generated images, video, or threats used to pressure or extort — and how to shut it down safely.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A too-easy job that pays before you work — then asks you to buy gear or “process” a check.
▶ Watch & take the drill →A buyer or seller who insists on Zelle, sends an “overpayment,” or wants a code to “verify” you.
▶ Watch & take the drill →The “IRS,” “Social Security,” “police,” or “Medicare” calling with threats and demands for payment.
▶ Watch & take the drill →The first three lessons — a little longer, made for grades 9–12.
Phishing DMs and texts. The fake countdown, the look-alike link, the login page that steals your password.
▶ Watch & take the drill →Impersonation. The “celebrity” giveaway, the fake brand prize, and the new crush who needs a gift card.
▶ Watch & take the drill →Game scams. Free-currency generators, fake trades, and the “moderator” who asks for your 2FA code.
▶ Watch & take the drill →Learn these three and you’ll spot the trick no matter what costume it’s wearing.
A countdown, a threat, “act now.” Real companies never put a timer on your panic.
A link, a handle, or a name that’s off by a character or two. Look slowly and it shows.
Your password on their page, a “fee” to get a prize, or your one-time code. That’s the trap.
Start with “The Voice on the Phone,” then see how many scams you can spot in the drill.
