Any suggestions for internet filtering?

My dad thinks he needs to augment their income. He trolls the internet for opportunities, finding scams and spending money instead of making it. The internet is his window on the world, I can't take it away. I don't know how to curb or control his behavior and spending, and it is stressing me out terribly. Anybody have some tips?

Like the child restrictions. My advice, turn the modem off and tell him the WiFi is down.

Mary, check to see if there is any "child proofing" you can set for Dad, to keep him out of those types of websites.

Take away his credit cards.

Cancel the accounts.

Make sure you put a freeze on his or a scammer's ability to open accounts  in his name through the three big credit reporting bureaus.
