About This Assessment
This self-assessment helps scam victims identify logical fallacies that influence their thinking and decision-making. Logical fallacies are patterns of reasoning that feel convincing but contain flaws in logic — and scammers are skilled at exploiting exactly these patterns.
Read each statement carefully and select the response that best reflects your honest experience. Awareness of these patterns is the first step toward strengthening your reasoning and protecting yourself.
Please Note. This assessment was developed by the scientists and psychologists at the SCARS Institute based on experience working with large numbers of scam victims. It is not a diagnosis of a mental health condition — it gives you awareness and a useful starting point. We recommend taking a copy of your results to share with your counselor or therapist.
