The workshop inbox needs a sharp-eyed elf
Spot The Grumble’s Phishing
A practice game from the workshop. Every sender, address, link and attachment was cooked up by the elves, so none of it is real mail.
The Grumble has slipped some sneaky messages into the workshop inbox. Read each email and its workshop context, inspect the link or attachment, then choose Phishy or Legit. A familiar name is not proof—good elves pause and check.
Inspect first. Pick second.
- Read the full sender address, subject and message.
- Check the actual destination printed below a link; no hover or click is required.
- Use the known context, then choose an answer.
- Read the elf explanation before the next card.
