## What is Spot the Bait?

Scam texts, fake delivery notices, "your boss" asking for gift cards. Spot the Bait shows you each trick in a one-minute cartoon, then stops and asks you to tap the red flags yourself.

- 40 short videos, with more added regularly
- Three videos a day, about four minutes
- Tap the red flags against a 15-second timer, or turn the timer off
- Pick a topic: fake officials, passwords and accounts, shopping, money and jobs, family, devices
- Trophies, a daily streak, and a list of the tricks you miss most
- Pause, resume or leave at any time; you carry on where you stopped

Every message in the videos is made up. Every lesson is based on consumer guidance from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. Spot the Bait is not affiliated with or endorsed by the FTC or any government agency.

No account. No ads. Your progress stays on your device.
