A human service from real people, not another app.
We started Robin after our own grandparents were scammed. We treat your parents like ours.
After every check-in you get a simple update, so you always know mum and dad are okay.
One service, wrapped around your parent. We do the looking-out, so they never have to face a scammer alone.
Every week, the same friendly person calls your parent for a proper chat. It's warm and unhurried, but behind the friendliness we're quietly listening for the things that matter: an odd phone call, a letter that didn't seem right, a payment they weren't sure about. Catching it early is what stops a worry becoming a loss.
We come to them, in person. We get everything set up to keep them safe and, just as importantly, we become a warm, familiar face they trust, so there's always someone real looking out for them. Regular visits keep it all current as the scammers change their tricks.
Scammers love an unprotected phone, laptop or bank account. We give your parent's devices and accounts a thorough once-over and quietly lock them down, closing the doors fraudsters slip through, so the technology works for them, not against them.
Scammers invent new tricks every week, and keeping up is our job, not your parent's. We track what's doing the rounds, from fake delivery texts to AI voice clones, and give them a gentle heads-up on what to watch for. No homework, no jargon, just a trusted person keeping them in the know.
When something feels wrong, there's a number to call before any money moves. We'll calmly talk your parent through it. And if they've already been caught, we act fast, helping freeze accounts, contacting the bank, and reporting it properly, with you looped in at every step.
You can't ring every day, and you shouldn't have to. After every check-in we send you a short, reassuring update on how your parent is doing, and the moment anything looks off, you're the first to know. It's the quiet confidence that you've genuinely got this covered.
What's included
A friendly first visit to get everything set up and protected: a call-blocker on the phone, accounts locked down, and your family safe-word agreed.
The same friendly person calls regularly to see how they're doing and quietly catch anything suspicious before it becomes a problem.
After each call you get a short, reassuring update. And if anything ever looks off, you're the first to know.
Robin isn't a faceless company. We're two friends who watched our own grandparents get caught out, and decided to do something about it.
A taste of what we help your parents stay ahead of. We track these so they don't have to.
Scammers now use AI to copy a relative's voice and call in a panic, claiming an accident or arrest and begging for money before there's time to think.
A text says you owe a small toll, parking charge or DVLA fine, with a tight deadline and the threat of extra costs, linking to a payment page that looks official but isn't.
Someone rings pretending to be from your bank or the police, says your money is at risk, and pressures you to move it to a "safe account" or hand cash to a courier to protect it.
Every 40 seconds,
an older person in England or Wales is scammed.
Today's scams are built by professional criminals to fool anyone. It's never your parent's fault, and they should never have to face it alone.
