Spotting scams online

This RSE & PSHE video introduces teachers to online scams and how they can trick users. It explains that scams are misleading messages designed to gain personal information, money or access to accounts.

By the end of this lesson, the children should be able to recognise common signs of online scams and understand how to respond safely. They begin by identifying suspicious messages, such as those that offer rewards or create urgency. They develop critical thinking skills, such as questioning intent, spotting warning signs and making safe choices online.
