pm-scam-defense
Protect aging parents from the scams that target them — the conversation that doesn't condescend, the family code word, the top patterns aimed at seniors, and the guardrails that help without taking over. Use when asked how do I talk to my parents about scams, my mom almost sent money to someone, set up scam protection for my dad, or what scams target the elderly. Produces the briefing conversation script (dignity-first), the household defenses, the pattern one-pager to leave behind, and the if-it-already-happened response.
What to give it
▸The people and the dynamics — who's being briefed, their tech comfort, and the honest relationship texture (a parent who resents "being managed" needs the advice-asking version, which happens to be the better version anyway)
▸The exposure surface — landline heavy? Active on social media? Online banking? Recently widowed (a targeting trigger the pattern list adjusts for)? Managing their own money entirely?
▸Any incidents so far — near-misses or losses reroute the output: response protocol first, briefing second
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓The conversation opens by asking their read, never by warning
✓The code word appears with the voice-cloning update stated plainly
✓Every guardrail is opt-in and carries its dignity-preserving logic
✓The one-pager is concrete: setup → tell → counter, no lectures
✓The no-blame protocol is installed before it's needed
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not script condescension — "let me handle your money" loses the war to win a battle
Do not rely on vigilance — tired, lonely, or rushed defeats vigilance; structure doesn't care
Do not skip the voice-cloning sentence — the family that trusts voices is running last decade's defense
Do not respond to a loss with anger or I-told-you-so — shame is why the second loss goes unreported
Do not build surveillance and call it protection — alerts configured *with* them, or the whole system gets opted out of
