Voice clones, deepfakes, and personalization have made fraud dramatically more convincing. But spotting scams is a skill that can be practiced.
How it works
Set up in minutes. Nothing to manage.
Four simple parts to build the instinct that spots a scam before it costs anything.
The Resilience Report
Every quarter, reassurance they’re stronger against scams

How ScamPrep compares.
| Approach | What it does | The gap |
|---|---|---|
| Account monitoring | Watches the bank account, alerts family to suspicious transactions | Alerts arrive after money moves, and feel like surveillance |
| Scam blockers | Filters known scam numbers or emails | Scams always slip through. When they do, their recipient is untrained and vulnerable |
| Free classes & pamphlets | Teach scam awareness once | Retention fades within about a month, and the content goes stale as new scams appear |
| ScamPrep | Trains with safe practice and coaching, keeps knowledge current with quick briefings, and measures progress quarterly | The recipient becomes their best defense, without giving up an ounce of independence |
Blockers and monitors are fine seatbelts. ScamPrep is the driving lesson.
The evidence
Built on what actually works for older adults
Federal reports and academic research have repeatedly found one-time scam education fades within weeks, but studies show performance on safe practice tests predicts real-world risk. It's the same simulated phishing training Fortune 500 companies have trusted for years. Now, ScamPrep is applying it to the people who need it most.
Consent-first, always. Every participant opts in personally. Drills are gentle, immediately debriefed, and designed with published research on older-adult learning. Nothing designed to shame or frighten. Read our full promise
Frequently asked questions
Does my loved one know they’re enrolled?
Always. Personal consent is required, and we never test anyone in secret. What keeps ScamPrep effective is that they don't know when the next drill will come or what form it will take. Real scammers don't make appointments either.
My loved one is sharp as a tack. Will they be offended by this?
Sharp people get scammed every day. Optimism bias ("it won't happen to me") is exactly what scammers count on, and today's AI voice scams fool professionals. A framing that helps: this is the same training Fortune 500 companies require of every employee, CEO included. Being sharp is the starting point, and practice is what keeps it that way.
What if they never fall for a single drill?
Wonderful. The Resilience Report proves it, quarter after quarter, and that proof is worth as much as the training. Scams change constantly, so staying enrolled keeps skills current against tactics that didn't exist a few months ago. Think of it like a smoke detector: even if you haven’t had a fire yet, you have it in case of one.
Is this another app they'll have to manage?
No, and that's deliberate. There is nothing to download and no password to remember. Drills and briefings arrive through the channels they already use every day, like their email inbox and cell phone. There's nothing new to check or keep charged. If they can read a text, that's all the setup there is.
Do you access bank accounts or financial information?
Never. ScamPrep doesn't monitor money. We only need contact channels, like an email address and phone number.
A pamphlet won't help spot the next scam. Practice will.
