Introductory Activity: Spotting Emotional Triggers (15 min) ● Description: Softening the "fear of the machine" by acknowledging that scammers target human emotions like fear and urgency rather than just technical flaws. ● Activity: "Think of a Time": o Prompt: The facilitator asks: "Think of a time when a message, website, or notification made you feel pressured, confused, or unsure. What part of it created that reaction?" o Interactive Element: Participants share their experiences in small groups to identify "Emotional Red Flags" such as raised heart rate or feeling rushed. 2.
