Is this deal too good to be true?

You will learn to describe an offer and ask what warning signs to watch.

3 min read Always free

A great deal can be real. But some are traps to take your money. It is wise to pause and check.

ChatGPT can look at the offer you describe. It can point out warning signs. It can suggest what to ask before you buy.

Trust your gut. If something feels off, it is okay to walk away.

Try this
  1. Describe the deal to ChatGPT in your own words.
  2. Say where you saw it and what it promises.
  3. Ask what warning signs to look for.
  4. Ask what to check before you pay.
A message you can copy

I saw a deal that seems too good. It says [describe the offer]. I found it on [where you saw it]. What warning signs should I watch for?

Paste it into ChatGPT, then change the words in brackets to fit you. It opens in a new tab, so you will not lose this page.

If an offer rushes you to pay fast, that is a common scam sign.
