Mozo, a company specializing in online fraud detection tools, has launched a free WhatsApp service designed to identify suspicious messages ahead of the upcoming elections. The service, powered by artificial intelligence, will be available at no cost until 24 hours after the election day.

Users can submit messages or screenshots they receive to the WhatsApp chatbot to verify if they are fraudulent or potentially harmful before clicking on links or divulging personal information. This proactive check is initiated by the user, who sends the content to Mozo's WhatsApp agent. This agent complements the company's dedicated mobile application.

According to Mozo, their application can automatically detect and block fraud attempts, including suspicious messages and links. It also facilitates manual checks by users to assess the reliability of messages. The company reports that its products block over 7.5 million attempted fraud incidents monthly across various countries worldwide.
