Award Recognizes ScamCheck’s AI-Powered Protection Against Scams, Deepfakes, and Digital Deception

LOS ANGELES, Calif., June 25, 2026 – AI Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies, and products in the global Artificial Intelligence (AI) market, today announced TrendLife™, a global leader in consumer digital life protection and business unit of Trend Micro, as the winner of the “AI Safety Solution of the Year” award in the 9th annual AI Breakthrough Awards program.

The award recognizes the breakthrough innovation of the ScamCheck app.

ScamCheck is an anti-scam solution designed to help consumers spot scams before they unfold. As scams become more polished, multi-step, and increasingly AI-driven, it is harder for consumers to rely on obvious warning signs alone. ScamCheck helps close that gap by analyzing suspicious content and communication patterns across channels like texts, calls, websites, emails, and screenshots to identify subtle signs of fraud that traditional scam protection may miss.

ScamCheck’s AI models are trained on real-world scam tactics and global threat intelligence to analyze signals like linguistic patterns, impersonation attempts, and behavioral manipulation techniques to warn users of scams. In addition to actively warning users of potential scams, users can submit suspicious messages, links, phone numbers, emails, or screenshots for analysis to the easy-to-use ScamCheck app. iPhone users can even ask “Siri, is this a scam?” and the app will let them know if it is trustworthy or not.

“Scams have evolved into multi-step, emotionally manipulative attacks that can move across texts, calls, websites, video, and messaging apps before a person realizes they are in danger,” said Frank Kuo, Chief Consumer Business Officer of TrendLife. “ScamCheck was built for this new reality. Using AI-trained real-world scam tactics, ScamCheck helps connect the dots, detect subtle signs of manipulation, and warn people earlier before they lose money, personal information, or trust. We’re honored to be recognized by AI Breakthrough, and this award reinforces our commitment to using AI as a force for consumer protection, helping people and families navigate the digital world with more confidence and less fear.”

ScamCheck also includes Scam Radar, a proprietary feature that connects the dots across communication channels to detect scam intent earlier. Rather than only flagging isolated red flags, Scam Radar looks for behavioral signals that match common scam journeys – including investment, loan, government imposter, shopping, and delivery scams – and delivers real-time, stage-based alerts with recommended next steps so users can take action before they are pulled deeper into a scam.

Additional protections include deepfake video detection, which alerts users within seconds if someone on a video call appears to be using face-swapping technology. With ScamCheck’s Family Circle feature, users can also extend protection to loved ones and receive alerts if someone in their circle may be targeted by a scammer, helping families respond quickly with early warnings and practical next steps.

“ScamCheck is uniquely designed for today’s scams. The rising tide of imposter scams caused $3.5 billion in financial losses in the U.S. alone in 2025, according to the Federal Trade Commission. As cybercriminals make scams more convincing, consumers need protection that can identify risk signals across the full scam journey,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, AI Breakthrough. “Whether you want to reduce the noise and the risk of overwhelming scam messages, or you worry about the possibility of being targeted by a very successful scam, AI-powered ScamCheck offers a breakthrough solution by making advanced anti-scam protection accessible for everyday users.”
