Give Dad a Year of Scam Protection (So You Don’t Have To Worry!)

We all love our dads, but if we’re being honest, helping them navigate the internet can feel like a second job. Whether it’s figuring out how to connect to the Wi-Fi or questioning if that “Amazon” email is legit, tech support duty usually falls to us. And with online scams growing more sophisticated every day, it’s more important than ever to make sure the people we care about know how to stay safe — or have someone they can turn to when things go wrong.

That’s where TechPals comes in — a service designed to take the pressure off you, while giving your parents the expert help they need to stay safe and confident online.

Online Scams Are Getting Smarter — and Seniors Are Often the Target

Scammers are getting more creative by the day. Fake texts from banks, phishing emails pretending to be grandkids, pop-up windows that look like virus warnings — it’s overwhelming even for those of us who are pretty tech-savvy. For our parents, it can be downright confusing.

In fact, older adults lose billions of dollars each year to online scams. Not because they’re careless — but because the scammers are good at what they do. And once someone has been scammed once, they’re often even more vulnerable to follow-ups.

That’s why giving your dad real-time access to scam protection isn’t just thoughtful — it’s necessary.

What Is TechPals?

TechPals is an unlimited, one-on-one tech help service built specifically for older adults. It’s available 24/7, with no appointments required and no complicated jargon. Their patient experts can help with everything from smartphone settings and Zoom troubleshooting to — you guessed it — identifying and avoiding online scams.

Think of it like giving your dad a personal tech advisor he can message any time a sketchy link shows up, a device starts acting funny, or a “you’ve won a prize!” pop-up appears.

And yes — it means you no longer have to be the tech support hotline.

Why It’s the Perfect Father’s Day Gift

There are only so many mugs, grilling aprons, and “#1 Dad” socks one person can receive. TechPals is the rare kind of gift that’s actually useful, shows you care, and saves you time and stress in the process.

Here’s why we love it:

Your dad gets peace of mind. He doesn’t have to guess whether something is a scam — he can ask an expert.
You get your time back. No more emergency calls about password resets or suspicious emails.
It’s ongoing. Unlike a one-and-done gift, TechPals lasts all year, keeping him protected and supported every step of the way.
It’s digital. No shipping, no wrapping — just an instant gift with a major impact.

Real Help, When It Matters Most

Imagine your dad gets a strange email asking him to confirm a wire transfer. Or a text that says his Netflix account is locked. With TechPals, he doesn’t have to panic — or call you in the middle of your workday. He can open a chat and get help right away from someone who’s trained to spot scams and explain what’s happening clearly and kindly.

This kind of support can literally stop a scam in its tracks — and build long-term confidence with technology, too.

This Father’s Day, give a gift that protects the people you love — and makes your life a whole lot easier.
