Cyber Safety Worksheet: Money Scams

Cyber safety lesson 20: QR, lottery and job scams · Set 52 · 40 questions

Stay safe (Receiving needs nothing): Scanning a QR code or entering a PIN sends money OUT — never to receive. A prize you never entered, a fee to claim a prize, a fee to get a job: all scams. Decline strange payment requests, block the number and tell a parent; for money already lost, call 1930.
