HUNCH is a game that turns scam awareness into an interactive game. Instead of simply reading tips about scams, users face realistic scam scenarios and have to trust their instincts, identify suspicious behavior and choose the right action under time pressure. With progressive levels, scoring, streaks, XP and different types of scam situations, HUNCH makes learning how to spot scams engaging, practical and memorable.

📌

We built HUNCH because knowing scam red flags isn't the same as recognizing them under pressure. We wanted people to practice spotting scams not just read about them. What started as a simple idea evolved into a game with realistic scenarios, timed decisions, levels and scoring/ Now we are curious: What's the closest you've ever come to falling for a scam?

What makes a scam actually convincing?

While building HUNCH, I noticed something interesting: the hardest scenarios aren't necessarily the ones with the most complicated scams.

They're the ones that look normal.

A familiar company. A reasonable request. A message that isn't badly written. A little urgency. Nothing immediately screams SCAM, but something just feels slightly off.

Unpopular opinion: scam awareness training is mostly useless (change my mind)

Most "how to spot a scam" content is a checklist nobody remembers in the actual moment of panic. You read it once, feel smart, then still fall for something 6 months later because real scams don't politely match the checklist.

Been building something that tries a different approach, reflex training instead of information, but genuinely curious if this community thinks awareness content actually changes behavior, or if it's mostly comfort content people consume without retaining.
