Why 6 categories?
Based on psychological profiling of scammers, most attacks fall into these distinct behavioral patterns. Segmenting them helps us provide more specific "Warning Signs."
Can a scam be in multiple categories?
Yes. For example, a "Romance Scam" might use "AI Voice Cloning." We categorize articles by the primary delivery method used.
How often are these updated?
Every category receives at least one new detailed guide every two weeks as part of our commitment to public safety.
