A Simple AI Safety Check You Can Do in 60 Seconds
A simple habit that can keep you safer online

Hello,
Here’s a quick safety habit that takes about a minute — and it applies whether AI is involved or not.
Before clicking a link or responding to a message, pause and ask one question:
“Is this trying to rush me?”
Urgency is one of the most common tactics used in scams — many of which now involve AI-written messages that sound very convincing.
Red flags include:
“Act now”
“Your account will be closed”
“Immediate action required”
If something is truly important, you’ll usually have time to verify it.
This week’s clear takeaway:
Pause beats panic — every time.
