Google expands AI fraud detection tools in Search, Chrome, and Android to block scams and protect users from phishing and impersonation fraud.

With AI-powered threat analysis, Google says it has reduced scam pages in Search by over 80 per cent and can now offer real-time scam alerts in Chrome and other apps. Gemini Nano, an on-device AI, plays a key role in offering enhanced user protection without compromising privacy.

Google has launched an aggressive campaign against online search scams by deploying sophisticated artificial intelligence systems to identify and eliminate deceptive content. The technology giant is specifically targeting fraudulent activities including fake websites and misleading pop-ups that falsely claim devices have been infected with viruses to trick users into downloading unnecessary security software.
