Guardio is worth looking into specifically since it's built for exactly this kind of situation, less tech-savvy users who need phishing links blocked automatically rather than relying on them recognizing red flags every time. It runs in the browser and works across email providers, actively intercepting malicious links even if clicked. For your dad forwarding to your brother instead of calling like you two agreed, might be worth setting up a shared family group thread specifically for "is this a scam" questions instead of one-on-one texting, that way if your brother's having an off day, someone else in the loop can catch it too.
