Family Safe Word Generator

Scammers can clone a loved one’s voice from just three seconds of audio. A family safe word stops them cold: if a panicked call asks for money, you ask for the word. A real family member knows it. An AI clone doesn’t.

100% private. This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your safe word is never sent to us, stored, or seen by anyone.

Your safe word

Memorable but unguessable — never a pet’s name or a birthday. Prefer your own idea? Just type it on the card below.

Backup: verification questions

No safe word yet? Ask something only real family could answer — and that isn’t on social media.

    Make a card to share

    Fill this in, then print it (or save as PDF) and give a copy to the people you want to protect — especially older relatives.

    How to use your safe word

    1. 1

      Agree on it together — in person. Never share it by text, email, or on a call.

    2. 2

      Keep it off social media. Don’t use pet names, birthdays, or anything postable.

    3. 3

      Make it the rule. Any urgent money-or-emergency request must clear the safe-word check first — no exceptions.

    4. 4

      If a call fails the check: hang up and call the person back on a number you already have saved.
