Teens are online a lot, and scammers know it.
Watch for
- Jobs that pay you to receive and forward money or packages
- Online sellers who want payment by gift card or payment app only
- Game currency or prize offers that ask for passwords
- Messages from "friends" asking for money
Teach them
If it's urgent, secret or too good to be true, stop and ask you first.
