WhatsApp is rolling out an optional Scam Alert feature that uses on-device AI to flag messages that look like a scam before you reply. It’s a heads-up, not a verdict — it just gives you a reason to pause on anything sketchy landing in your chats.
The move
Switch it on, but still trust your gut: if a flagged message pushes you to act fast, slow down and verify through another channel before replying. Sharpen your radar with Swipe to Survive.
