Truecaller Introduces Scamfeed: A User-Powered Defense Against Scams
Truecaller, the world’s leading global communication platform, is thrilled to unveil Scamfeed, a powerful new feature designed to connect users in the fight against digital fraud through the strength of shared experience.
Embedded directly within the Truecaller app, Scamfeed is a dynamic user-generated content stream where users can report, discuss, and stay informed about the latest scams as they unfold. More than just a feed, it’s a digital support network for anyone who has encountered fraud or narrowly avoided becoming a victim. Additional detailed information on how to spot scams, how to protect yourself and how to report scams can also be accessed via the dedicated website: www.truecaller.com/scam-alert.
Scamfeed serves as an early warning system powered by the very people scammers target. It allows users to quickly check if others have reported similar suspicious messages or calls, learn the red flags associated with new fraud types, and gain confidence in identifying and ignoring malicious attempts.

By providing a safe space to share real experiences and warnings, we empower people to stay ahead of fraudsters, learn from each other, and ultimately protect themselves and their loved ones.
