The fake government call
"This is the IRS / your bank's fraud department."
A caller claims to represent the IRS, a bank, or law enforcement, and demands
immediate payment, a code, or personal information under threat of arrest or a
frozen account.
✓ RingSafe never transfers this call live. It asks for a public callback number and reference number instead, so you can verify independently, on your own terms.
The loan you never applied for
"You're pre-approved — call us back immediately."
A scripted or prerecorded voice announces a loan, funding, or debt-relief offer,
pressuring an urgent callback before you have time to think.
✓ RingSafe recognizes the scripted pitch pattern and ends the call politely — it never reaches you at all.
The family emergency
"It's your grandson — I need you to trust me right now."
Someone calls claiming to be a relative in trouble, leaning on urgency and
emotion to skip past any real verification.
✓ RingSafe asks a private question only your real family would know — graded automatically. The AI itself is never told the correct answer.
The marketplace buyer
"Buy this vehicle report first," or "I'll send a cashier's check."
A buyer pushes a third-party vehicle-report link, or offers to overpay by
cashier's check with a third-party pickup — two of the most common private-sale
scams.
✓ RingSafe flags the exact pattern and keeps the conversation on safe ground, without you ever manually reviewing it.
