Our mission

Protecting Retirees from the New Generation of Scams

AI has made scams more convincing than ever. We're here to make sure you know exactly what to look for — in plain English, no jargon required.

Why we exist

Knowledge is the best protection

Scammers have always targeted retirees. But artificial intelligence has changed the game entirely. Today's scams use AI to clone voices, generate realistic photos, and craft personalized messages that are nearly impossible to distinguish from the real thing.

StopAIScams was created with one goal: to give everyday people — especially retirees, parents, and grandparents — the knowledge they need to recognize these threats before they become costly mistakes.

Plain English, always

No technical jargon. No overwhelming detail. Just clear, practical information you can act on.

Always up to date

AI scams evolve fast. We stay on top of the latest tactics so you don't have to.

Empowerment, not fear

Our goal isn't to scare you — it's to give you the confidence to navigate the digital world safely.

About the author

Hi, I'm Joanna

After spending over 30 years working in Information Technology — including roles in risk assessment and threat analysis — I retired with a deep understanding of how digital threats work and how they target people.

When I started seeing how AI was being weaponized against everyday people, especially retirees, I knew I had to do something. I've spent my career translating complex technical risks into plain language that anyone can understand. That's exactly what I do here.

My guides are written for real people — not IT professionals. If you've ever worried about being scammed online, or wondered whether you'd recognize an AI scam if you saw one, this is for you.
