"Mom, don't click anything. I'll ask Scampilot."

When your parents get a sketchy mail, they usually call you. Scampilot answers the question they're actually asking.

A phone call, 21:47

"Tell me, I got a mail from DHL, they want €1.99 …"


Without Scampilot: 20 minutes on the phone, with the risk that the mail gets opened anyway.

With Scampilot: "Forward it to Scampilot, read the answer, call me back." Time: 3 minutes.

Two roles

The recipient. And the one who helps.

Scampilot was built with two people in mind: Renate, who gets the mail - and Mara, who is already her phone hotline today.

R
Renate72

She gets the mail.

"I get this stuff every week. Some looks real, some doesn't. I want to ask someone who tells me plainly - without making me feel foolish."

What she needs An input box. No app install. No account. Answer in big type, plain words. "What should I do?" - clear and numbered. No one mocking her for asking.
M
Mara38

She is the hotline.

"Mom calls because a Sparkasse mail looks off. I need something she trusts when I'm unreachable."

What she needs Set up a burner alias per family member. Add a forwarding rule in mom's mail account. Read along with reports - to keep Scampilot honest. See signals and evidence when she wants to look deeper.

A field report

Three weeks with Scampilot.

What it looks like in one family's week, from setup to the point where the phone goes quiet.

01

Day 1 - Mara sets it up.

She signs up, creates a burner alias mom@in.scampilot.de, and adds a forwarding rule in her mom's mail account. Time: six minutes.

02

Day 3 - Renate gets the first mail.

"Your parcel could not be delivered". Renate is unsure, forwards it. Twelve seconds later the answer comes back by email.

Scampilot <reply@scampilot.de>12 sec ago

Likely scam · 91/100

Hi Renate, this is not a real DHL notice. Please:
1. Do not click any link.
2. Check your shipments directly on dhl.de.
3. Delete the mail.
03

Day 8 - Mara reads along.

In the dashboard she sees: four checked mails, two flagged as scams (DHL phishing, Microsoft login), one warn (newsletter with a weird tracking link), one safe. She sleeps easier.

04

Day 21 - the phone stops ringing.

Renate has checked seven mails, five flagged as scams. Mara got called once - to confirm she could trust the answer. She could.

03
Practical

Ten minutes to go live.

You need a Scampilot account and access to your family member's mail account. We recommend setting it up together - over coffee.

01

Create an account.

Free, no credit card. You get a primary alias your-name@in.scampilot.de right away.

02

Make a burner alias per family member.

Dashboard → Inboxes → "New burner alias". That way you always know who the request came from.

03

Add a mail rule.

In your mom's mail account (Gmail, Web.de, GMX, T-Online): forwarding rule to the burner alias - or a bookmark to /check.

04

Read along and step in when needed.

In the dashboard you see every report under your aliases, with model reasoning and signals. You'll notice immediately if Scampilot got it wrong.

What Scampilot isn't

We don't replace you.

Scampilot isn't a guardian. It's a tool that takes the routine questions away, so you have energy for the real crises.

Scampilot answers the easy cases - and those are 95 %. A fake bank login mail. A "parcel customs fee €1.99" trick. A "Microsoft detected activity" phishing. The whole phishing industry lives on these templates being copied a million times.

In the real crisis - when the account is already taken over, the money already wired - you, the family member, need to step in. You need to call the bank, the police, the card-block number. A tool can't do that.

We filter out the noise so you're still alert when it counts. No more, but no less either.

"We filter the noise out so you have energy for the real crises."- Product manifesto
No family account We don't build login sharing. Everyone has their own account - sharing happens through burner aliases, not passwords. That way one compromised account doesn't expose everyone.
