Two people close to me got hit. My real estate agent clicked a link in a text, and the scammers emptied his bank accounts. Then someone printed fake checks with my dad's account number, and the bank paid them. The warning signs were there both times. Nobody was looking.

I built Pausebird for my dad. He reads Korean first. When a text, a KakaoTalk screenshot, an email or a voicemail looks off, he shares it to Pausebird. He gets a red, yellow or green answer in Korean or English, with fixed next steps. If it's red, one button tells the family. My phone buzzes and I can call him right away.

The second tab watches his checking account. It compares the checks the bank paid with the checks he actually wrote, and it reads every check image. In the demo data it finds three fakes worth $5,475. One of them says check 5032 on the front, but the bank line at the bottom says 1046.

On Android it also looks at new messages on the phone by itself and warns him before he acts on them. Nothing leaves the phone unless he taps the warning. My dad is using it now. He installed it from Google Play testing on Oct 31.

Built during the hackathon (Oct 26 to Nov 4): all of it. The scam checker, the link checks that never open the link, the Korean 070 number check, the scam-pressure phrases in English and Korean, the check comparison, the family alert, the Korean/English phone page, the privacy page, and the Android app with the on-phone check.

Try it: https://app.pausebird.com. The judge code has its own spending cap, and "Tell my family" never sends anything on it. Judge passcode: 027771597279
