If it’s from a business, does it look professional?
Does it have the product’s or company’s usual logo and text without spelling errors?

Does the siteʼs URL match the name and information
youʼre looking for?
http://www.google.com
http://www.google.net
http://www.g00gle.co

Is the message coming in the form of really annoying
spammy popups?

Does the URL start with https:// with a little green
padlock to the left of it?

Is the message offering something
that sounds too good to be true?

Does the message sound just a bit weird?

Summary
What questions
should you ask
when assessing a
message or site?
Circle the ones you
are unsure about.

If you do fall for a scam, what should you do?
Tell your parent, teacher, or other adult you trust right away.
The longer you wait, the worse things could get.
Change your passwords for online accounts.
If you do get tricked by a scam, let your friends and people in your
contacts know right away, because they could get that tricky message
next.
Report the message as spam, if possible.

Activity!

Partner up with the
person next to you
Say “Hi” to your partner.
Then answer the questions
on the following slides.

Here are some questions to ask yourself when evaluating
messages and sites you find online. You can use this as a
guide as you answer the following questions.
Does this app look right?
Sometimes fake apps—that look a lot like real
ones—get advertised in website popups or
show up in app stores. Look out for spelling
mistakes, a tiny number of user reviews or
sloppy graphics.
Is the email offering you something for free?
Free offers usually aren’t really free.
Is it asking for your personal information?
Some scammers ask for personal info so
they can send you more scams. Most real
businesses wonʼt ask for personal
information in a message or from anywhere
except their own websites.
Is it a chain email or social post?
Texts and posts that ask you to forward them
to everyone you know can put you and others
at risk. Don’t do it unless you’re sure of the
source and sure the message is safe to pass
on.
Does it have fine print?
At the bottom of most documents you’ll find the
“fine print.” This text is tiny, and often contains
the stuff you’re supposed to miss. For example, a
headline at the top might say you’ve won a free
phone, but in the fine print you’ll read that you
actually have to pay that company $200 per
month.

Is this Real or Fake?
Circle your evidence for your decision.
REAL! FAKE!

Discuss your answers
with your partner
Which examples seemed
trustworthy and which
seemed suspicious? Did
any answers surprise you?
