Scam Messages Without Typos: What to Check Instead

For years we taught people to spot scams by their mistakes. AI chatbots can now fix spelling in a second, so a polished message proves nothing.

Instead, look at the request: log in quickly through a link, send a code, pay a fee, keep it secret.

If there's a real problem, it will be there when you open the real app or website yourself.

Good AI tools refuse to help write scams, but some will polish text without understanding what it's for.

The rule from the episode: check the ask, not the spelling.
