About this app

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.

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!

Hi Terence, thank you for your feedback. Scam messages that you have been notified of by ScamShield are automatically reported and you do not need to manually report. If you are facing an issue with reporting a message that was not detected as scam, do let us know at go.gov.sg/scamshield-feedback. Thank you!

Hi there, we're sorry to hear about your experience. ScamShield works with your phone’s call features, and some functions are managed by your device or telco. Changes to settings, system updates, or telco services affect how calls appear. Please contact our support team at https://go.gov.sg/scamshield-share-feedback so we can assist you further.

Hi there, thanks for your feedback. We understand how frustrating scam calls can be. While ScamShield helps reduce scam calls by blocking numbers verified by the authorities, scammers often change or spoof numbers, so not all scam calls can be blocked immediately. Reporting suspicious numbers helps alert the authorities and protect more users.
