Family Sentinel
Protection for the people who raised you

The criminals we fight all day
spend their evenings calling your parents.

Seniors lose billions a year to scams engineered specifically to fool trusting, generous people. Family Sentinel puts a professional security analyst between the con artists and the people you love — screening every message for malware, ransomware, phishing, and the cons themselves — and alerts you the moment something's wrong.

The playbook

The cons that empty a retirement account rarely look like scams.

They look like a grandchild, a bank, Medicare, or a kind new friend. Here's what we watch for — and catch before the money moves.

"Grandma, I'm in trouble"

A panicked plea: an arrest, an accident, bail needed now — and "don't tell Mom and Dad." We flag the pattern and alert the family instantly.

Government & Medicare threats

Fake IRS, Social Security, and Medicare notices threatening arrest or lost benefits. Real agencies never do this — our engine knows it.

Tech-support & fake renewals

"Your Norton renewed for $399 — call to cancel." The call leads to remote access and a drained account. We catch the shape of it.

Romance & "pig-butchering"

Weeks of warmth, then a crisis only money can solve — or a can't-miss investment. Only patient, ongoing monitoring sees it coming.

Recovery scams

After one loss the vultures circle: "we can get your money back — for a fee." Prior victims are targeted relentlessly. We watch hardest here.

Prize, lottery & inheritance

"You've won — just pay the fees first." Old as time, still working daily. Flagged and explained in plain English to the family.

Lookalike bank & Medicare phishing

A pixel-perfect "security alert" from a domain registered last week, with a sign-in link that harvests the password. We check the sender's authenticity and where every link truly leads — before anyone clicks.

Malware & ransomware attachments

A fake invoice, shipping label, or "voicemail" that installs software when opened — up to ransomware that locks a lifetime of photos. Every attachment is scanned with live antivirus before it can do harm.

The guarantee

What we cannot do — by design.

Handing a service access to a parent's inbox is a big ask. So we chose permissions that take our trustworthiness out of the equation: the service cannot send, delete, or alter a single message — limits Google and Microsoft enforce at the account level, not just promises we make. See exactly what we can and cannot do →

  • We cannot send, delete, or alter a single email.
  • We cannot move, withdraw, or freeze money — ever.
  • We never see or store passwords; access is revocable anytime.
  • We keep no ordinary mail — only flagged threats, briefly, as evidence.
  • We never sell data, run ads, or train AI on your family's mail.
