Cancel That Payment—Or Is It a Scam?

Cancel That Payment is a 1-page printable or digital poster that uses humor to highlight a common phishing scam: fake PayPal invoices that urge recipients to call a number to cancel a suspicious charge. The poster reminds viewers to pause before reacting, and instead of calling the number provided, to report the email to PayPal and delete it. Designed to be both eye-catching and informative, this resource empowers users to recognize and resist financial phishing attacks disguised as urgent billing notices.
