Spot a Money Scam Before I Fall for It

Use this when a message or call feels off. It lists the warning signs, explains how this type of scam usually works and tells you the safe next step.

Works inChatGPTClaudeGemini

I received this message or offer and I am not sure if it is a scam. Help me check it. Where it came from: [EMAIL, TEXT, PHONE CALL, SOCIAL MEDIA] What it says: [PASTE IT WITH ANY PERSONAL DETAILS REMOVED] What it asks me to do: [CLICK, PAY, SHARE A CODE, CALL] List the warning signs you see, explain how this type of scam usually works and tell me what to do next, such as who to contact officially. Do not click links in it. Remind me never to share passwords, codes or card numbers.

Tip: When in doubt, contact the company using a number from its official website, not from the message.

What to fill in

Before you send it, replace the parts in [square brackets] with your own details:

  • Email, text, phone call, social media
  • Paste it with any personal details removed
  • Click, pay, share a code, call
