Hi all
Could with some help in the above please
As my dad ages and becomes more vulnerable I am looking for ways to minimise this risk

He gets lots of scam emails. He does seem to ignore them but it would best to remove them in case he does click or misses valid emails

Anything about phone settings to help with scam texts?

Phone calls?

I am also going to look into all his online security, passwords, apps etc. He's getting forgetful with passwords etc so need to simplify yet keep secure

Anything else?

If anyone has resource or suggestions that have found useful then please share

Thanks
