Children and parents
Games, chat and school accounts - written to be read together rather than handed to a child alone.
6 lessons, free to read and reuse under CC-BY-4.0.
Games, chat and people you have not met
Read together: who is really on the other side of a game or chat, and what to do when someone you have not met wants to move the conversation.
School emails, portals and “your homework is locked”
Read together: fake school messages that ask a child to log in, pay, or unlock homework - and how to open the real portal instead.
After a scare: tell a parent, then the school if needed
Read together: what to do after a nasty message, a scare, or a trick that already happened - tell a trusted adult first, then the school if it belongs there.
Accounts, passwords and codes on games and social
Read together with a teenager: unique passwords, a password manager, and why a login code in chat is never a favour.
Someone posting as you, or a fake classmate
Read together with a teenager: fake accounts, stolen photos, and AI-made images - how to capture evidence, tell an adult, and not feed the impersonator more.
Skins, gift cards and “verify to keep your account”
Read together with a teenager: fake verify pages, skin trades, and anyone who wants a gift-card code to “save” a game account.
