The UK has launched a new tool called Ask Silver to help people stay safe from scams. This tool uses artificial intelligence (AI) to check suspicious texts, emails, and websites.
Users can sign up and add Ask Silver as a contact on WhatsApp.
Whenever someone gets a message that seems strange, they can send a screenshot to Ask Silver.
The tool will quickly check if it’s a scam and give advice on what to do next. It can also help report scams to the proper authorities.
Ask Silver works with a group called Get Safe Online to spread the word about online safety.
The creators, Alex Somervell and Jonny Pryn started the tool after a family member lost a lot of money to scammers.
This tool is simple to use, works directly in WhatsApp, and sends regular updates about the latest scams. It’s designed to make online safety easy for everyone, no matter their tech skills.
In a world where scams are getting smarter, Ask Silver is a great way to protect yourself and your loved ones.
