FamilyAtlasLook-alike addresses
Letters from another alphabet, digits in place of letters, a brand name joined to words like “login” or “secure”, or a real bank address hidden inside a stranger’s.
FamilyAtlas Guard · early access
Stop the fake bank page before anyone types a password.
Guard is a Chrome and Edge extension for adults and older parents. It catches look-alike bank, payment and delivery sites, fake virus alerts and paste-this-command tricks, then says plainly what to do next.

What Guard catches
Banks people actually use
Major US banks, card issuers and payment apps, the IRS, SSA and Medicare, carriers and retailers, plus every active FDIC-insured bank that lists a website with the FDIC.
Known dangerous sites
A regularly refreshed list of phishing and malware addresses, checked inside the browser. Downloading the list sends no address.
Passwords heading elsewhere
A password about to leave a suspicious page for a different site is stopped first, with a plain explanation.
Fake alerts and “paste this” tricks
Scam pages claiming the computer is infected are covered with an explanation. Instructions to press Win+R and paste a command are flagged.
Remote-access downloads
Scammers often ask people to install a remote-access tool. Guard pauses that download so there is a moment to stop and check.
What the warning looks like
One clear message, the address in its own box, one big safe button, and a “Why?” that explains the trick in a sentence.
Letters from another alphabet
The address spells PayPal with a Cyrillic “а”. Guard blocks it and names the brand being imitated.
Text you can actually read
A− and A+ change the size in five steps. The choice is remembered on that computer only.
Comfortable in dark mode
The page follows the computer’s light or dark setting and keeps strong contrast in both.
Child wording for children
In the FamilyAtlas child extension the same engine speaks to a child, and a block has no way past.
Made to be understood at a glance
- The FamilyAtlas logo and name sit at the top, and the page says the warning comes from the protection installed in this browser, not from the website.
- Five text sizes, large buttons and keyboard focus that is easy to see.
- “Why?” turns each finding into one plain sentence and names the safe next step.
- English and Turkish today, in light and dark mode.
Privacy
It checks addresses without keeping a diary of them.
Checks happen inside the browser. Guard has no browsing-history permission and never records or sends which sites are visited.
Optional family link: if the person chooses, Guard can tell a family member that it stopped something — the kind of threat and the imitated brand’s name, never the address or anything typed. Either side can end the link at any time. An optional strict mode removes “continue anyway”.

Honest limits
A warning is a reason to stop and check, not a guarantee.
Guard covers Chrome and Edge where it is installed. It does not see email, text messages, phone calls, other browsers or apps, and no tool catches every scam.
Bank and company names appear only as examples of what scammers imitate. FamilyAtlas is not affiliated with them.
