Current Threats Targeting Seniors

Scammers are getting smarter—many now use AI tools to sound more convincing than ever. Digital Seniors gives you clear, repeatable strategies to spot trouble before it costs you money, time, or peace of mind.

Your 10-Point Digital Defense System

The Think Start Safety Protocol

1.

Privacy is Power

Check privacy settings monthly on all platforms. If you wouldn't put something on a highway billboard, don't put it on "Public." Your personal information is valuable currency—spend it carefully.

2.

The Billboard Test for Posts

Never share home addresses, phone numbers, vacation dates, or financial details online. Criminals monitor social media for opportunities, and they're more sophisticated than you might think.

3.

Password Hygiene Saves Lives

Use unique, complex passwords for every account—12+ characters with numbers, symbols, and mixed case. Password managers like LastPass or 1Password remember them so you don't have to write them down.

4.

The "Real Life" Friend Rule

Only accept friend requests from people you know in person. Scammers create convincing fake profiles using stolen photos and generic information. When in doubt, call them directly to verify.

5.

Skepticism is Your Superpower

Messages about surprise money, lottery wins, or urgent family emergencies are always scams. Real organizations never demand immediate action or personal information through unsolicited contact.

6.

Minimalist Profile Strategy

Keep your bio details vague. Your birth year, hometown, and pet's name are common answers to security questions—don't give them away for free.

7.

Verify Before You Trust

If a friend sends a suspicious message asking for money or personal information, verify through a different method. Hackers often compromise accounts and message entire contact lists.

8.

Hover Before You Click

Don't click links from unknown senders. Hover your mouse over links to preview the actual destination before clicking. If it looks suspicious, it probably is.

9.

Location Privacy Matters

Disable location-sharing in social media posts and smartphone apps. Broadcasting your exact location in real-time is an invitation to criminals who track movement patterns.

10.

The Clean Digital Exit

Always log out completely on shared computers or devices. Closing the browser window isn't enough—use the official "Log Out" function and clear browsing data.

Why Digital Seniors Exists

I've spent over 20 years in Canadian media—from major networks to iHeart Radio's "Shane Hewitt and The Nightshift"—explaining how technology changes our lives. I saw a critical gap: seniors were being targeted by increasingly sophisticated scammers while being ignored by tech companies who assume everyone learns the same way.

The Think Start Difference

We don't use condescending "tech support" language. You're not digital immigrants—you're intelligent adults who built the world we live in. Whether you're exploring AI writing tools or securing your online banking, we start with respect for your intelligence and experience.

My Approach

Every strategy I share has been tested across major media platforms, from CBC to CTV. This isn't theoretical digital literacy—it's practical media literacy applied to your daily digital life.
