ScamShield: Your scam-fighting sidekick

ScamShield helps protect you from scams by blocking shady calls, filtering scammy SMSes, and letting you check suspicious messages before clicking anything regrettable.

Here’s what ScamShield can do:

📢 [New] Get notified when a number you reported gets flagged
If the authorities later mark a number you reported as possibly used by scammers, we’ll send you a push notification. You can also check your history of flagged numbers in the app.

🕵️‍♀️ Spot a scam before it gets you
Got a weird link, message, or phone number? Paste it in to see if it might be a scam. You can even upload screenshots - works for SMS, WhatsApp, and Telegram too.

🚫 Block and filter scam calls & SMSes
Follow our quick setup guide to block known scam numbers and filter out sketchy messages.

📝 Report suspicious calls, messages, and links
Help the community by reporting scams - with screenshots if you have them. The more we know, the better we can protect everyone.

⚠️ Heads up: Submitting a scam report in the app isn't the same as filing an official police report. If you've been scammed, please file an e-report with the Singapore Police Force.

Download ScamShield for yourself and your loved ones because a little protection goes a long way.

We may occasionally prompt you to refresh the ScamShield app, which helps with performance and security. The prompt to refresh will appear when you open the app, and does not require you to visit the Play Store to update to the latest version.

Ratings and reviews

I just received a missed call from +92 country code WhatsApp call with the profile picture impersonation of ICA officer. Scam shield app does not allow me to upload the screenshot from WhatsApp. Only options are provide details of SMS, WhatsApp call number etc. Can improve further on the app interface, thank you!

Scamshield was good and easy to report scammers phishing in the mid stage, but now it so requires users to answer calls from Strangers/Scammers that are calling from overseas before WE can report the caller to warn others in the database. If we don't answer the scammer's caller. I DO NOT HAVE callers calling me from overseas. I have other means to communicate by. Why make it so difficult?

Need website reporting as a lot don't want to install the app for it and have to uninstall afterward. That what I did, as no other choice. This make the amount of reported case to be greatly affected. Now reinstall to report 1 more case Also why these scam report we file not forward to police? It make us have to report twice for one incident
