IndieSecure for Family
The same scams, privacy risks and fraud we defend companies against reach families at home. IndieSecure for Family offers free games that help the youngest and eldest members of your family spot the tricks before they work.
Both games are free of charge, with no ads. We maintain them and add updates periodically as scams change.
Why we built this
Impersonation, urgency, oversharing and pressure to keep a secret work the same way on a finance team as they do on a grandparent or a twelve-year-old gamer. We believe security, privacy and fraud awareness belong at home too, and that families protect each other best when they practise together.
Kids meet strangers, prize pop-ups and pressure inside the games and apps they already use.
Older adults are targeted by phone, email and text with urgent stories about family, money and health.
Parents and adult children are often the first call. The games give you a shared language for that conversation.
The games
Both games let players see a scam from both sides: as the person being targeted and as the scammer. Knowing how the trick is built makes it easier to spot.
An online safety coach for kids, set up by a parent.
Ten real scams, played from both sides, so the tricks are familiar before they arrive.
Each game has its own privacy notice: ScamViz · ScamSpotter.
At home
A few habits make the biggest difference. Pick one for each end of the family and try it together.
Our commitment
The games are free of charge and carry no ads. We maintain them and add new scenarios and fixes periodically. Community groups and organisations can ask us for ScamSpotter access codes for their members.
