## What is ScamRank?

ScamRank is an AI-powered scam detection platform. Users paste suspicious emails, text messages, URLs, or screenshots and receive an instant trust verdict (safe / caution / high risk) powered by the ScamFilters AI engine. Every scan is logged, categorized, and aggregated into a growing intelligence database.

## Intelligence Data

ScamRank publishes a public Scam Intelligence Library at /scams. Each page represents a documented scam category detected across real user scans. The library is updated continuously as new scans are submitted.

### Available Intelligence Profiles

Each profile at /scams/[slug] contains:
- Threat type and trust score (0–100% trustworthy; low = high danger)
- Summary of the scam pattern
- Language patterns used by scammers
- Known red-flag signals with real excerpts from flagged content
- Emotional triggers exploited
- Recommended actions for victims
- Report count (number of user scans flagged as this type)

### Current Profiles

- /scams/phishing-email — Phishing (email) scams
- /scams/financial-fraud — Financial fraud and investment scams
- /scams/impersonation — Impersonation scams (brand, person, authority)
- /scams/phishing — Phishing scams (web links and URLs)

## Scan Channels

ScamRank analyzes content across these channels:
- email — Email messages
- sms — SMS/text messages
- web_link — URLs and web links
- other — General text, screenshots, or unknown channel

## Trust Score Explanation

The trust score represents the percentage likelihood that content is legitimate (trustworthy). A score of 8% means the content is 8% trusted — i.e., highly likely to be a scam.

- 0–29% trusted → High Risk (likely a scam)
- 30–69% trusted → Caution (suspicious, review carefully)
- 70–100% trusted → Low Risk (likely legitimate)
