Protecting elderly parents from phone scams
If your mom or dad picks up every call, this is for you.
Set up the phone
Turn on carrier spam filtering and Silence Unknown Callers if they will not miss real calls. Save family, doctors and pharmacy as contacts.
Agree on a rule
No one legitimate asks for gift cards, wire transfers, or a code sent by text. Hang up and call family.
Shrink their exposure
Their names, ages and addresses are on the same sites. The Family plan covers you plus 3 people.
