The results were fairly good, though Genie did miss a few obvious ones based on specific details. For example, the full sextortion email that I submitted was not considered a scam because the Bitcoin URL included in the text was seen as legitimate. When I removed the Bitcoin link from the text, Genie correctly identified this message as a scam.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the chatbot definitely needs improvement as it failed to understand or respond properly to some of my questions. As I said earlier, Genie is in an early access phase, so it certainly requires more time and training to be truly effective. For now, I would use the tool as one way to identify scams but would continue to rely on other methods as well.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about preventing and combatting scams, check out the following ZDNET articles:<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/how-to-use-nortons-free-ai-powered-scam-detector\/#ftag=RSSbaffb68\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Norton Genie will analyze suspicious emails and other content and alert you if a scam is afoot.
