WHY THESE SCAMS WORK
Different stories. Repeated pressure tactics.
A delivery text, a fake bank alert, and a government impersonation can look completely different. But they often rely on the same psychological mechanisms. Learning those mechanisms makes new scams easier to recognize.HELP BUILD THE DEFENSE
