ScamAid is a scam message checker for Indian users. Paste a suspicious SMS or WhatsApp message and ScamAid shows a risk estimate, explains each warning sign in plain language, highlights suspicious words, and gives a specific safe next step (for example, open the official bank app, or report at cybercrime.gov.in / 1930). Results are available in English and Tamil, with a Listen button for read-aloud. It combines rule-based checks with the Meta Model API, and falls back to rules if AI is unavailable. Genuine messages such as real bank OTP alerts are not flagged as scams.
