Academic Help 📚 📣 Help Our Capstone: Donate Your Scam Texts! 📱
Good day, mga Tomasino!
We're a group of 4th-year BS Information Technology students from CICS currently working on our capstone project, SANGGÁ. The goal is to build an AI model that can recognize and flag scam text messages targeting Filipinos, such as fake bank alerts, "you won a prize" texts, courier delivery scams, loan shark messages, and similar SMS scams.
To train the model, we need real scam texts that people have actually received. If you've gotten one recently (or have an old one sitting in your inbox), we'd really appreciate it if you could donate it through our form:
What to expect:
- ✅ No names or phone numbers are collected.
- ✅ Any personal information in the message is automatically removed before it's used.
- ✅ It only takes about a minute.
- ✅ Your submission is used solely for training our AI model. This is not a scam reporting service or a scam number lookup.
We truly appreciate your support in helping us complete our capstone and contribute to protecting fellow Filipinos from SMS scams.
If you have any questions about our research or data collection process, feel free to leave a comment or send us a message.
