The internet’s full of things that look real, feel right, but…are they?
They’re evolving.
Online scams don’t happen just because we lack awareness. They’re evolving, becoming masters at sneaking into our feeds, blending into our lives, and looking more convincing than ever.
Sounds sci-fi, but it’s true.
Staying safe now means more than just scrolling cautiously. It’s about sharpening our thinking, so we can spot the red flags and call them out before it’s too late.

About Creators IRL
As content consumers, we turn to content creators we trust. People who share their experiences, ideas, and POVs in a relatable way. That’s why it’s so important for creators to feel confident and empowered to talk openly about online scams.
Creators IRL is a 3-month fellowship that equips you with the tools, knowledge, and support to infuse your creativity with impact to shape a safer online space. Over the course of the programme, you’ll collaborate with corporate partners and government agencies, all while connecting with a network of like-minded creators who are just as passionate about making the internet a better place.
