Practise, not when there is a rush
Role-play = acting a situation in calm. A parent or a friend sends a “fake” message without a link — only text: URGENT! Click here for a prize. You answer with words, not with a click.
The goal: the sentences are ready when a real scam arrives at night.
Role-play rules at home or in class with a teacher:
- no clickable link that leads to a website
- no QR code “try if you fall for it”
- only the text of a message on paper or in a private message to a parent
- after practice: that was training
Rush + fear = a click. Role-play trains a pause. A second. “I will show a parent.” A second is cheaper than a lost account.
Three scenarios to practise
1. A prize / a win
Fake: You won a phone. Click within an hour.
Answer: I do not click. I go to a parent / a teacher.
2. A code from an SMS
Fake: إرسال the code that just arrived. It is verification.
Answer: I do not read a code. I hang up. I tell a parent.
3. Rush from a “friend”
Fake: Quickly send me the password to the game, or they will kick us.
Answer: An account is not lent. I will call you, to check it is you.
-
With a parent: one scenario today. A parent sends text. You answer with a sentence. No click.
-
Practise out loud the sentence: I do not click. I show an adult.
-
In class only with a teacher — a description of the message on the board, not a clickable email. The class says the answer.
What to say at home
To a parent:
“Can we role-play? You send me a fake message without a link. I say what I will do. I want the sentences ready.”
To a teacher:
“Can we in ICT describe a scam on the board? No clickable link. The class says the answer.”
Role-play in class without a teacher with a real phishing link is dangerous. Even “for teaching”. A description on paper is enough.
Now you 💪
One role-play with a parent today. Three answer sentences out loud.
Write into the campaign: Rush → I do not click, an adult. It is already there — now you can say it.
Check: Role-play without a link. Sentences ready. A pause before a click practised.
What to take from this lesson

- Three scenarios: a prize, a code, rush from a friend.
- A sentence: I do not click. I show an adult. I do not read a code.
- In class only with a teacher, a description not a link.
