Google has been working to protect users from scams and fraud with advanced technologies and security expertise. In 2024, scammers used sophisticated tactics and AI-powered tools to steal over $1 trillion from mobile consumers globally. To combat this, Google is launching two new AI-powered scam detection features for calls and text messages. These features target conversational scams that can appear harmless at first but evolve into harmful situations. The features use powerful Google AI to detect suspicious patterns and deliver real-time warnings during conversations, prioritizing user privacy. Scam Detection for messages is being introduced in Google Messages, which uses on-device AI to detect fraudulent activities and provide warnings to users. This feature is launching in English in the US, UK, and Canada, and will expand to more countries soon. Scam Detection for calls is also being expanded to more users, using AI models to analyze conversations in real-time and warn users of potential scams. Both features are designed to protect user privacy, with all processing done on-device and no conversation audio or transcription recorded or sent to Google or third parties. Google is committed to keeping Android users safe, and its investment in intelligent protection is having a real-world impact for billions of users.
