Do you think ads make seniors more vulnerable to scams?

Ads themselves are not inherently dangerous, but they can serve as a gateway for scams, especially when targeting vulnerable populations like seniors. By understanding the risks and adopting protective measures, older adults can enjoy the benefits of technology and advertising without falling prey to fraud.

Yes, I believe that advertising makes older people more vulnerable to fraud. My mother orders from Temu quite often. So to protect her, I installed Temu ad blocker . For my mum, I decided to take action. I installed AdLock for Temu, an ad blocker specifically designed to reduce exposure to aggressive online advertising. The result? A cleaner, safer browsing experience with fewer distractions and less risk of falling for scams.
