Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 12.62 Financial Safety, Identity Protection, and Digital Citizenship skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Use the image: A money-management app offers 30-day, 1-year, and indefinite storage of transaction history. What is the most responsible response?

AChoose indefinite storage because more history always improves budgeting insights.

BChoose the shortest retention period that still supports the user's budgeting purpose and account needs.

CPick 1-year storage by default without checking what goals require older records.

DKeep transaction history forever but use a weak nickname so the data is less identifiable.

Solution & Explanation:Privacy-by-design reasoning favors keeping only necessary data for only as long as needed. The retention choice should match the budgeting need rather than keeping transaction history indefinitely by default.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A viral livestream shows a deepfake-looking celebrity promoting a limited crypto giveaway that doubles any deposit sent to a wallet address. Which action best follows digital financial safety practices?

ASend a very small crypto deposit to test whether the doubling offer is real.

BTrust the stream if it appears on a verified-looking celebrity account.

CShare the wallet address with friends before the timer expires so they can decide quickly.

DTreat the livestream as unverified financial promotion and avoid sending funds or wallet information.

Solution & Explanation:Deepfake-style endorsements, doubling claims, and urgency are high-risk scam signals. A deposit-doubling wallet request is not a legitimate basis for sending funds or wallet information.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A club accidentally emails a spreadsheet with donors' names, emails, donation amounts, and last four card digits to all members. Which choice best protects money and personal information?

ALimit further sharing, notify affected people, review account risk with the payment processor, and improve data-handling rules.

BAsk all members to delete the email and take no other action unless fraud occurs.

CSend a second email with the card digits removed but leave the original message in inboxes.

DPost a correction in the club chat without notifying people whose information was exposed.

Solution & Explanation:Responsible consumer protection includes containment, notification, risk review, and prevention. Containment and notification reduce further exposure while the club strengthens future handling of donor data.
