- Google is working on a feature to detect bank scams that involve screen sharing.
- The feature will detect when you’re sharing your screen during a call and have a bank app open in the foreground.
- This would be a welcome layer of protection against a major scamming tactic.
Google Pixel phones already offer Scam Detection functionality in beta, but we’ve also seen scammers make use of screen sharing to fleece victims. However, it looks like Google is working on a solution for this particular type of fraud.
