    A new great resource: Scam Detector App for iPhone

    For those interested, Apple released an iPhone app a few days ago, called Scam Detector. The app exposes in detail 350 of the most notorious scams in the world. It might be worth checking it out, if you have an iPhone. The app it's kinda cool, actually. There is their info, and a video review: www.scam-detector.com

    I am doing research for anti-fraud resources for work, either websites, apps or whatever. Downloaded the Scam Detector app yesterday and I was impressed by the amount of scams revealed there. True, they charge 99 cents, but I would gladly invest less than a dollar instead of losing thousands.

    It's the attitude that security is another commodity that gets up my nose, as opposed to it being a common good that should be available to all, because it will, in this case, help to reduce the incidence of fraud.
    It's analogous to the process of vaccination & the resulting herd immunity.

    As a Linux user, I'm used to a different attitude from providers regarding security.

    @Dragonladies.org.
    Can you contact me via the private message system with the reasons for your suspicions? Thank you.

    @Dragonladies. Your post is kinda funny. Just because I share what i believe in doesn't mean I am a spammer. I am sharing where I think people might find the info useful, it's up to them to decide. I m not gonna share it on a comedy show forum.
    Did you even check their mandate and the info on the link? Is it porn or malware? NO, absolutely not.

    @De Master Yoda - feel free to do whatever you want with the post, I just thought the app it's interesting, that's all. I don't even know those people, but appreciate what they did. And I have personal reasons for that.
    Thank you both.
