KeepUp Academy - Scam Message Checklist

Before clicking, replying, paying, or sharing a code, pause and check:

1. Did the message create urgency?
2. Is it asking for money, gift cards, passwords, or verification codes?
3. Did it come from a number or email address you recognize?
4. Can you verify it by opening the official app or website yourself?
5. Would it be safer to call a known number instead?
6. Did someone ask you not to tell anyone?
7. Does the link look unusual or shortened?
8. If you feel rushed, stop and ask for help.

Safer next step: Do not use the link in the message. Go directly to the official app, website, or phone number.
