About this title

Synopsis

Scams are evolving. Your defences need to evolve too.

A convincing phone call from your bank. An urgent message from a family member. A promising investment opportunity. A legitimate-looking website. A new online relationship. A work-from-home offer that seems too good to ignore.

Any one of them could be real. Any one of them could also be a carefully engineered scam.

The Digital Self-Defence Handbook is a practical, easy-to-understand guide to protecting your money, identity, accounts and relationships in a world where fraud is becoming increasingly sophisticated.

From traditional phishing and fake investment schemes to AI-generated voices, deepfakes and automated social engineering, this book explains how modern scams actually work, why anyone can be deceived, and what you can do before and after something goes wrong.

Inside, you'll learn how to recognise and respond to:

• Phishing emails, suspicious text messages and fake websites
• Bank impersonation, caller-ID spoofing and fake support calls
• Investment, cryptocurrency and withdrawal scams
• Romance scams and relationship grooming
• Fake jobs, marketplace scams and money-mule recruitment
• Malware, spyware, malicious apps and remote-access attacks
• Identity theft, account takeovers and SIM swapping
• AI voice cloning, deepfakes and synthetic-media deception
• Recovery scams that target victims a second time
• Business email compromise and payment redirection fraud

The book also provides practical guidance for protecting older and vulnerable family members, strengthening your devices and accounts, responding to an active scam, recovering compromised accounts, protecting your credit and identity, and reporting fraud through appropriate channels.

You do not need to become a cybersecurity expert to protect yourself.

You need stronger habits, safer decisions and one principle that works against almost every form of digital deception:

STOP. THINK. VERIFY. STAY SAFE.

Whether you are protecting yourself, your family or your business, The Digital Self-Defence Handbook provides a practical foundation for navigating the digital world with greater confidence and security.
