Activity 5: ScamShield Check and Report

Alignment: LO2 / A2 Objective: Use ScamShield resources to check and report a simulated suspicious message safely.

Safety and scope

Use only the simulated data supplied in this folder. Do not test live suspicious links, accounts, phone numbers or payment routes.

Procedure

  1. Open the official ScamShield site by typing the known government URL.
  2. Review the current Check for Scams and reporting options.
  3. Prepare the supplied simulated message, number and URL for checking.
  4. Submit only the fictional training data supplied in the activity pack.
  5. Record the result, confidence language and any follow-up advice.
  6. Create a report using the simulated screenshot and redact unrelated personal data.
  7. Compare the result with your own signal triage from Activity 1.
  8. Document what ScamShield can support and what still requires independent judgment.

Evidence to submit

ScamShield check record, redacted report example and limitations note.

Acceptance check

Only simulated data is submitted; the learner distinguishes a tool result from proof of legitimacy.

Reflection

Which observable fact most changed your decision, and which uncertainty remains?
