Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Enter your email and the download link appears straight away, with a copy sent to your inbox. No payment details are requested at any point.

Why do you ask for my email address?

So we can send you a copy of the download link, and you can come back to the checklist later without hunting for this page. There is no account to create, no basket and no payment details.

Is this just an extract from the paid guides?

It is drawn from the scam chapters of all fourteen guides and rewritten as a single checklist, so it stands on its own. The full guides go much further on each individual app.

Can I print it or pass it on?

Please do. The last two pages are designed for printing, and sharing the checklist with family is exactly what it is for.
