Help Older Adults Stay Independent and Better Protected From Scams.
Older adults do not need to be frightened, patronized, or told that they cannot make their own decisions. They need practical tools. Scam Shield gives older adults somewhere simple to turn when a message, phone call, payment request, investment, or other situation does not feel right.
Independence and Protection Can Coexist
Give people better information, not less independence.
"Can you check this for me?"
Scam Shield helps answer:
- What looks suspicious
- Why
- How to verify independently
- What to do
- When to involve someone trusted
Common Situations Older Adults Face

Calls claiming a grandchild or family member is in trouble and needs money immediately.
