Before & After: Spotting Phishing in Seconds
Here’s how the skills pay off — real example from the course.

Before — Looks Legit?
I’ll walk you through a quick routine: confirm the sender, spot pressure words scammers use, and preview links safely.
We'll look at a real example from everyday email and review when to delete, when to report spam, and when to go directly to the site/app.
After — What Changed:
① Sender name vs. domain ② Spelling/grammar
③ Urgency words ④ Hover to preview link
⑤ Wrong entity name ⑥ Fear/pressure tactic
These are the same checks you’ll learn to run consistently in the course.
Your Complete Bunkproofing System
The Don’t Get Bunked!™ System is a complete, three-part approach to safer checking.
The Don’t Get Bunked!™ System includes the eBook DEBUNK: Arm Yourself With the Tenets of Critical Thinking (future updated Second Edition included automatically), the Bunkproof in 30 Minutes™ video course, and The Bunkproof Toolkit™ (members-only, lifetime updates) — all included for a one-time early adopter fee.
