Protect member directories and livestreams
Why it matters: Directories, livestreams and prayer lists hand scammers names, relationships and health details that make impersonation believable.
On your path if you picked “Nonprofit or faith community” for “What's your industry?”.
Do it
- Move directories behind member login, and ask before listing anyone.
- Set camera angles that avoid children and congregants who haven't consented.
- Keep health details out of public prayer lists.
- Remove old directories from public websites.
Check it worked: Member directories are shared only with members, livestreams avoid showing children's faces and names without consent, and prayer lists don't publish health details.
Simply put
A public directory is like pinning the member phone list to the front door. Names, relationships and health details make a fake call believable; keeping them behind a member login keeps them within the community.
In detail
Grandparent-style voice scams aim at older members, and public detail makes them more convincing; less of it, plus the safe-word guidance for members, helps on both fronts.
Points toward the Long View: members' voices, faces and stories shared only with their consent.
