This module uses offline data, self-created inputs or tabletop scenarios. Follow the steps and check the evidence you produce.

Tabletop exercise: choose an independent check

Analyze the fictional message only; contact no real person and make no payment.

  1. Identify the exact requested action and impact.
  2. Compare the supplied number with an established directory and mark the independent route.
  3. Write a pause-and-report note naming what needs confirmation.

Expected result

The established directory provides an independent source; the number in the message does not.

Check your work

Would your verification process still apply if the message had perfect grammar?

Finish and clean up

Save the exercise note without storing or sharing real personal data.
