Questions.
Does Mum need to do anything?
No. Texts arrive as usual and scams quietly land in Junk.
Can we read her messages?
No. You see what kind of scam was blocked. Never the text.
What if a real text lands in Junk?
It's still there. Nothing is deleted, and people in her Contacts are never checked.
WhatsApp? Calls?
Not yet. Phone makers and WhatsApp limit what apps can check there.
