Meta launches AI tool for WhatsApp fraud detection
Meta has introduced a new feature called "Scam Alert" on WhatsApp, which uses artificial intelligence to detect suspicious messages and warn users of potential scams. Currently available in a limited beta version, this feature displays a warning within the chat when the model determines that a message might be an attempt at fraud, giving the user options to take actions such as blocking, reporting, or continuing the conversation. This feature helps combat phishing and scams, as WhatsApp is one of the biggest platforms where fraudsters conduct scams, with losses exceeding $425 million in 2025 due to scams on the app.
