Trust the gamer’s advice – they’re an expert after all and click on the link to buy it.

Do some research and read some reviews to see how other people rate the headset, before buying it

Stick with the headset you already own for now – it works fine, and you’d rather take your time instead of rushing into a new purchase.

Message your friends immediately – this is big news!

3. You watch a funny prank video where a man has tricked his partner into thinking he’s chopped off his finger and decide to share it with your cousin, who replies, “Ha ha – they’re good actors but this is definitely fake!” What do you do? *

10 points

Scroll through the comments to see whether other people think the prank was faked and watch some of their other videos to see if you can find any other clues the prank might be faked.

Message your cousin saying they’re wrong – what would be the point in faking a prank video?

Report the video – they shouldn’t be allowed to post fake pranks!

4. There’s an exciting new dance trend that’s gone viral and everyone is trying it out. You’re supposed to post the video of your first attempt, but when you watch yours back it doesn’t look as good as the others you have seen. What do you do? *

10 points

Keep practising off camera and post a video when you’ve got better, pretending it’s your first go.

Post your first attempt with a laughing emoji, then keep practising and post another one when you’ve improved.

Comment on all the other videos accusing them of lying about it being their first attempts and make sure everyone knows that the trend can’t be trusted.

5. You receive a direct message from a close friend with a picture of some designer sunglasses that say 50% off and a long link to a website you don’t recognise. What do you do? *

Speak to an adult about what the message said and then delete it, without sharing it on.

Send an angry message to your friend about sending annoying messages.

Send a message to five of your friends, telling them not to read the next message and then forward the creepy story to them so nothing terrible happens.

7. You’ve been chatting with an online friend for several months after you met on a fan page for a band you both like. They’ve just announced a concert coming up and you’re desperate to go. Your friend messages asking if you want to go together – they’ll even pay for your ticket! What do you do? *

10 points

Tell your whole family that the article is fake and have a laugh at how stupid your relative has been

Send the family member a private message or speak to them in person and let them know your concerns.

10. You watch a documentary online that all your friends have been talking about, but aren’t sure whether it’s true. It seems to be based on rumours and a lot of it has been quite exaggerated.What do you do? *

10 points

Spend hours researching and reading about it online to try and get to the bottom of what’s going on.

Accept that even some ‘factual’ shows may not be completely reliable as they are often produced for entertainment as well, but enjoy the show anyway.

Believe it – even if it is just rumour, it’s much more fun and exciting if you pretend it’s true.
