Social media often feels like a wasteland of abuse. From trolls attacking over differing opinions and bullies venting behind keyboards to con artists running romance scams, catfishers pretending to be someone else, and stalkers hiding online, the digital landscape can be a dangerous place. In this bold episode of Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn, Amy exposes the toxic reality of playing pretend on these platforms and explains why no one should tolerate threats or digital harm.
 
Drawing from Romans 12:19 to 21, we are reminded not to take revenge but to leave room for the wrath of God. In this installment of Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn, we explore the power of overcoming evil with good. While the internet can feel like a lawless movie, the truth is that no one can hide from their actions for long. We have a moral obligation to speak up. If you have been a victim of a romance scam, a catfisher, a stalker, or a bully, you must not remain silent. Reporting these actions is a step toward stewardship and safety for the entire community.

By tuning into Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn, you will find the courage to stand firm against online harassment. We discuss the importance of having a moral code in a space that often feels like it has none. If you have faced bullying or scams, you are not alone. Platforms have tools for reporting, and there are direct resources available to help you navigate the aftermath of online abuse. Responding with moral strength instead of retaliation is how we protect our testimony while also protecting our physical and emotional well-being.

Your safety matters to God, and it should matter to you too. This episode of Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn serves as a source of valuable information and a call to action. We have provided a comprehensive list of 24/7 crisis lines and places to report scams in the resources section below. Whether you need world wide help or specific cybersecurity reporting tools, taking that first step to speak up is vital. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good today by fighting back wisely and using the tools at your disposal to bring hidden works into the light.
