01 / UNDERSTAND

Here is what is happening.

Phishing uses deceptive messages to seek sensitive information or harmful actions. Unexpected urgency and requests for passwords are warning signs. Verify through an independently known official channel rather than the message’s link.

Pause. Make the idea your own.

Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?

You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.
02 / MAKE IT YOUR OWN
