Digital Basics: Internet Basics and Scams

Feeling unsure about the internet? This beginner-friendly session will help you build confidence and stay safe online. We’ll start by explaining what the internet really is, how websites work, and what happens when you click on a link.

You’ll learn simple safety rules to protect yourself and your information. We’ll dive into common online threats like phishing texts, pop-ups, scams, and spam emails—and show you how to spot warning signs such as pressure tactics, threats, or offers that seem too good to be true.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll know what to do (and what not to do) when suspicious messages or pop-ups appear on your device. Join us and take the first step toward confident, secure browsing!

Perfect for beginners looking to build practical computer skills in a supportive environment!

Reminder: There is a Q&A at the end of each session and your tech questions do not have to be related to the topic of the week. Bring your own devices OR use ours!
