Abstract

Telephone fraud poses significant threats to telecommunications network users, causing both financial loss and emotional stress. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a real-time telephone fraud detection and prevention system, based on the principle of phone conversation content analysis. The study included an empirical study to select optimal AI tools for system implementation. A system prototype was developed, integrating the selected automatic speech recognition tool and large language model with a specific prompt, to analyze phone conversation content in real-time. The system’s effectiveness was evaluated in a simulated environment reflecting real-time conditions, using an expanded dataset with various fraud scenarios and languages. The results indicate high classification effectiveness of the system, achieving an accuracy of 90,4% and a 91,2% F1 score, indicating the system’s efficacy in real-time telephone fraud detection. The prevention rate reached 69,8%, demonstrating the system’s potential in real-time telephone fraud prevention.
