StopScam

What StopScam is

StopScam is a consumer app for screening suspected scams. You upload or photograph an email, message, post, PDF or link, and it returns a risk score with reasons, plus an assistant for follow-up questions about data breaches and fraud patterns.

What you can do with it

• Screen a message before replying
• Check a link before opening it
• Photograph a letter or QR code for review
• Explain to relatives why something looks fraudulent
• Log suspicious approaches over time

Who it is for

• Everyday users wary of phishing
• Families protecting older relatives
• Community groups running fraud awareness

What to watch out for

• Missed scams and false alarms both happen; a low score is never permission to trust a message
• Uploading content can expose personal details in it to a third party, so strip what you can
• Scam tactics change faster than detection models, so treat alerts as one input
• For financial loss or identity theft, contact your bank and local authorities, not just the app
