Truecaller takes its scam intelligence to the open web as it looks beyond caller ID

Automated excerpt

The Swedish company on Sunday launched Scam Checker, a new web and Android service that lets users paste in a suspicious phone number, link, or message to find out if it’s fraudulent. To work, the service surfaces related reports from Truecaller’s community, ScamFeed. Users can also paste a suspicious message, allowing the service to pick out a phone number or link and surface related reports from the Truecaller community.
