Scam Awareness: Identifying Fraud and Social Engineering Tactics is a practical, scenario-driven course that equips you to recognize and stop modern scams before they cause damage. From fake tech support pop-ups and invoice fraud to lottery and pet adoption scams, you’ll learn the psychological triggers scammers use—urgency, authority, fear, and curiosity—and the simple verification steps that neutralize them. We translate real-world red flags into clear checklists, show you how to validate communications, and explain when and how to disengage safely. You’ll also explore information-mining and gray-area schemes that harvest your data and erode your privacy over time. Whether you’re a consumer, small business owner, caregiver, or team lead, you’ll finish with the confidence to spot fakes fast, protect your accounts and identity, and report incidents effectively. The course includes bite-sized lessons, quizzes to test recognition skills, and actionable templates you can use immediately. Build a resilient, scam-proof mindset and keep yourself—and those around you—safe online and off.

            <p>In a world where our phones and computers are constantly buzzing with notifications, it’s becoming harder to tell what’s real and what’s a trap. We’ve all seen those suspicious texts about a package we didn't order or an "urgent" email from a tech support team we've never contacted. The reality is that scammers are getting more sophisticated every day, using clever social engineering tactics to play on our emotions and sense of urgency. By looking at the latest statistics and the sheer volume of fraud occurring globally, it’s clear that staying informed isn't just a good idea—it’s a necessary skill for navigating the modern digital landscape safely.</p>

<p>This course is designed to pull back the curtain on the most common schemes, from tech support and invoice fraud to the surprisingly emotional world of pet and lottery scams. We’ll dive into how these criminals operate, what their specific tactics look like, and—most importantly—how you can spot the red flags before any damage is done. Beyond just identifying the "big" scams, we will also explore the gray areas of information mining where your personal data is at risk. By the end of our time together, you’ll have a clear roadmap for prevention, a solid understanding of what legitimate companies will never ask of you, and the confidence to report suspicious activity to the right authorities.</p>
