Fraud checks run on your device. We do not upload SMS or call content. Improve detection is on by default and may send anonymous feature labels only β€” never message text. Turn it off anytime in Protect.

SecureGuard is a safety tool β€” not legal or police advice. If you have lost money or are in danger, call 1930 or your local police immediately.
