1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6?? 4.Qxf7#
In this position, the white queen is attacking the black f7 square, while the bishop is attacking the g7 square. If the black player captures the pawn on e4, white can then play Qh5 and threaten to fork the king and rook with Qxf7+.
Scholar's mate is commonly used in beginner games as a way of surprising and quickly defeating an inexperienced player who may not be familiar with it. However, it is not a strong opening strategy for more experienced players, as it is easily countered by defending against the early attacks on f7 and g7. Even though you see this a lot as a beginner, you should never see it again.
