Live site: psyoptin.com
Psy-Opt-In is a training game against manipulation. Instead of lecturing you about scams, it runs the tactics on you — with your consent, inside fiction, at zero stakes — until you can feel the pull before it moves you.
- Six story worlds — a charming coworker, a love-bombing community, an engineered feed, an election broadcast, a high-pressure sales room, and missions rebuilt from documented influence operations. Every scored moment quotes your exact choice back to you.
- The Line — a phone number you call to face a live AI scammer (bank fraud team, government imposter, sweetheart). Say COMPANION for the harder game: a partner who may or may not be hiding something — warmth wins, interrogation walls, paranoia costs.
- The Field Guide — the six pressure patterns behind almost every con, free to read.
- Permission to Scam Me — sign the waiver and, within 30 days, one consensual social-engineering attempt comes for you. Catch it and make the Wall of the Unscammable.
- Every tactic taught here is banned from our own funnel: no countdowns, no fake scarcity, no guilt streaks.
- Refusing well is always a scored win. The real-life rule in every debrief: hang up, and verify on a number you found yourself.
- No signup for the free tier. No cookies analytics. We don't sell personal information.
