Abstract:
Mobile communication has expanded rapidly, making Short Message Service (SMS) a primary tool for information exchange for both individuals and businesses. However, this convenience has a downside: it has opened the door for cybercriminals to launch "smishing" attacks—fraudulent messages designed to trick users into revealing sensitive personal or financial data. Traditional security filters, which rely on rigid rules, often fail to catch these threats as scammers constantly evolve their tactics. To solve this, our research develops an adaptive system using Machine Learning (ML) to automatically detect suspicious SMS content. We employ Natural Language Processing (NLP) to analyze text patterns and convert them into numerical data using techniques like TF-IDF. These features are then processed by supervised learning algorithms to classify messages as either legitimate or fraudulent. The result is a system optimized for high accuracy, speed, and real-time performance, making digital communication safer.
