Be Scam Ready

Be Scam Ready is a free, browser-based game developed in collaboration with Google. Be Scam Ready helps players practice identifying and avoiding common online fraud tactics. Be Scam Ready uses a wide range of short, interactive scenarios to show how social-engineering works in real life. The game challenges players to move beyond just spotting 'red flags' and instead identify the core manipulation techniques that form the building blocks of a scam in a choice and consequence style game. Scenarios are encountered by exploring the stories of four separate characters and their experiences with scams. The game builds confidence through practice, not panic, giving learners a way to fail safely in a sandbox before real scammers ever reach them.
