Not writing the code, but close enough to understand how modern systems work, how data is used, and just how sophisticated online scams have become. Yet none of that prevented the steady stream of late-night calls from her own mother about suspicious emails, alarming text messages, fake competitions, and rather persuasive scammers. Realising that families everywhere were having exactly the same conversations, Sarah wrote the book she wished had existed years earlier: one that explains modern scams clearly, respectfully, and without a hint of patronising techno-jargon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInside you'll discover:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• How to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003espot scam emails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, suspicious texts, and fraudulent phone calls\u003cbr\u003e• Why even intelligent, capable people get caught out by scams\u003cbr\u003e• The \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewarning signs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e of fake websites, online shopping fraud, and impersonation scams\u003cbr\u003e• How artificial intelligence is making scams more convincing than ever\u003cbr\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSimple ways to protect your passwords\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, accounts, and personal information\u003cbr\u003e• Exactly what to do if something doesn't feel right\u003cbr\u003e• How families can talk about online safety without anyone storming off in indignation\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis isn't a book about fear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt's a book about confidence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBecause staying safe online isn't about being \"good with computers.\" It's about understanding how modern scams work, recognising when something feels off, and knowing exactly what to do next.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhether you're buying this for yourself, for your parents, or for that wonderfully stubborn relative who insists they can spot a scam \"a mile off\", \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI Wasn't Born Yesterday!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a thoughtful, practical gift that says something very simple:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"I love you.
