Spot a Scammer

If you are thinking “oh but it won’t happen to me” or “I am too small to be targeted” – that’s exactly what scammer wants you to think and that’s exactly how they succeed.

Manipulation. Deception. False promises.

Whether it's online "mentors," shady offers, or emotionally manipulative people in real life - scams are everywhere.

But why do smart, self-aware people fall for them?

Why do we ignore red flags, justify bad behaviour, or believe too-good-to-be-true promises?

In this powerful masterclass I’ll expose the real psychology behind scams and manipulation—and show you how to protect yourself on every level.

We’ll explore:

The tactics scammers use (online and in person)
The link between your childhood conditioning and your susceptibility to manipulation
Why being “nice,” avoiding conflict, or craving validation makes you a prime target
How fast-track culture and pain-point marketing mess with your decision-making
The difference between mass manipulation vs targeted scams
The energetic red flags your nervous system always picks up—but you’ve been trained to ignore
And crucially: the steps you can take right now to protect yourself emotionally, mentally, and financially

Statistics:

USA: Americans are losing money to scams at record levels. The FBI received 800,944 internet crime complaints in 2022, with reported losses exceeding $10.3 billion – a huge jump from $6.9 billion in 2021 helpnetsecurity.com . (By 2023 the trend worsened, with losses climbing to about $12.5 billion ic3.gov .)

UK: According to police reports, £2.48 billion in fraud losses were recorded in just the 2022–23 year (individuals + businesses) – a 4% increase in money lost despite 15% fewer cases being reported committees.parliament.uk . This suggests scammers are extracting more cash per victim than ever. The average loss per incident rose to roughly £12,685 committees.parliament.uk , and reports of ultra-high losses (over £1 million) jumped 30% in a year committees.parliament.uk

Europe: Payment fraud data collected by European banking authorities show €4.3 billion in fraudulent transactions in 2022 across the EU/EEA’s main payment systems ecb.europa.eu . And that figure is rising – an additional €2.0 billion was already recorded in just the first half of 2023 ecb.europa.eu . These staggering losses (from credit transfers, card fraud, e-money, etc.) underscore how pervasive and costly scams have become even under Europe’s stricter banking security rules.

You don’t need to be gullible, naïve, or uneducated to get scammed.

You just need to be human.

Scammers don’t rely on your stupidity - they rely on your trust, your empathy, your desire to do the right thing, fix the problem, or say yes quickly so you don’t look difficult.

They prey on good people who care, give second chances, and want to believe the best in others.

This masterclass isn’t about shame.

It’s about power.

About reclaiming your clarity, your gut instinct, and your right to ask questions, even when something “seems legit.”

Whether you’re a solo business owner, a smart-but-exhausted professional, or someone who’s already been burned—this session is your permission slip to never doubt your gut again.

Because scammers are getting bolder.

And your best protection isn’t just tech tools or password changes. It’s you, fully awake, informed, and no longer an easy target.

Let’s shut the door on manipulation for good.
