International Fraud Awareness Week 2026 Official Supporter

Flggd has launched Spot the Scam, a free daily game for International Fraud Awareness Week, 15 to 21 November 2026, and beyond it.

Each day brings three messages built from scams going round now. Some are scams and some are genuine. Players decide which is which, then see the tells that give each one away, with a link to the full write-up in Flggd's scam library. A game takes about two minutes. There is no account and nothing to install.

Spot the Scam: three messages a day. Which are scams?

Scammers send their messages to thousands of people a day and refine what works. Most people see a scam only when one reaches them. Spot the Scam gives people a few minutes of practice each day, on the scams they are most likely to meet. It is free to play, in any country.

Flggd will publish what players spotted during Fraud Week, and which messages were hardest, once the week ends.

“Scammers test their messages on thousands of people a day. We should be practising too.”

Richard Stocks, CEO and co-founder, Flggd
