Ok, so how does fake call detection work?! 1. Attacker impersonates your contact by spoofing their number + voice cloning to steal your money, data, access, etc. 2. Your device knows your real contact’s 'digital handshake' confirmation signal, so when it’s missing, it notices. 3. If it’s missing, your device pings your contact's actual device to double-check their device is placing the call. If their real device says, "I'm not making a call right now," you'll get a warning on your screen about the spoof attack in action. Fake call detection is on by default and works automatically on Android 12+ devices (so even older phones) Note: Love that this digital check uses end-to-end encrypted Rich Communication Services (RCS) technology, and is completely private. You can also turn this feature off if you prefer.
