Let’s face it—using the internet these days can feel like walking blindfolded with bare feet on carpet scattered with Legos. One wrong click and suddenly you’re getting emails from a Nigerian prince who needs your bank account number to share his fortune… or a text from the “South Carolina DMV” asking you to pay for a toll road that you can't remember driving on. (Spoiler alert: it’s not real, and no, they don’t accept Apple Gift Cards.)
You're not alone if you’ve ever wondered, “Is this legit?” while staring at your phone or computer. That’s why I created a one-hour course called “Avoiding Online Tricks and Traps.” It’s designed for regular people who want to use their tech without getting tricked, hacked, or roped into funding a fake royal family.
In this friendly, small-group session, you’ll learn how to:
Spot scam emails, texts, and pop-ups (before they spot you)
Create passwords even your future self will remember
Browse, shop, and video chat without worrying what’s watching
Know when a message is real—and when it’s just digital nonsense
No tech talk, no pressure, no shame. Just simple, real-world tips to help you feel safer online. Oh, and I’ll be your instructor—not a teenager wearing a hoodie speaking in code.
