The mark is some kind of visible identifying thing.
People who get the mark are not fooled into taking the mark on their person.
They first must worship the Beast, (devil). then they get the mark.
the mark confirms identity with Satan. And is willingly received by a person.

Those who won't worship the Beast, won't get marked, they will all be killed.
Those who do worship the beast take the mark willingly.

Rev 13

14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.

15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,

17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

So you can read the Devil worship precedes getting the mark of the beast.
At the appointed time, no one will be confused about the mark. You will not be unknowingly marked
