Today is a timely reminder that scams are evolving faster than awareness and education remains one of the strongest defences.

The BBC recently highlighted how online scams are targeting younger users through gaming, social platforms and seemingly harmless digital interactions 👉

While this article is aimed at a younger audience, the reality is simple:
scams don’t discriminate by age, sector, or experience.

At TYP Group, we believe reducing risk starts with visibility and education:

• Helping people recognise red flags early
• Encouraging verification over urgency
• Creating open conversations around digital trust and safety

If something feels rushed, unusually rewarding, or asks for personal or financial information — pause, verify, and challenge it.

The more we expose scams, and educate ourselves and others, the fewer people fall victim.
