Google is expanding more of its Android scam protection features to more devices beyond its own Pixel smartphones, while introducing new safeguards against fraudsters who exploit phone calls and screen sharing. According to the latest entry to its security blog, the expansion will bring Scam Detection in chat notifications to hundreds of millions of additional Android users later this year.
The company says its AI-powered Scam Detection in Phone by Google and Google Messages already flags more than five million suspected scam calls and text messages every month. The latest measures aim to help users identify suspicious messages and prevent scammers from accessing sensitive information.
