How to send a training

Copy the message below. Change the words so it sounds like you.
Send it from your own phone or email. A link from a stranger is exactly what the training teaches people to ignore.
Tell them it is coming. A quick call or a word at dinner is enough.

Hi! I found a 3-minute quiz about scam texts and I want to see if you can beat my score. Nothing to sign up for. https://imnobodysfool.com/emergency-call.html
