What is SMS Spam ? Unwanted Texts SMS spam refers to the practice of sending unsolicited text messages, often for the purpose of advertising or fraud. Spammers use techniques like spoofing phone numbers to make messages appear to come from legitimate sources. Deceptive Tactics
Overview The project addresses the growing need to filter spam messages efficiently using advanced AI techniques. Leveraging machine learning and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, the goal is to enhance the accuracy of spam classification in SMS .
The Impact of SMS Spam Privacy Invasion SMS spam violates personal privacy and can be disruptive, especially for those who rely on their phones for work or emergencies. Financial Burden Receiving too many spam texts can lead to increased data usage and costs for consumers.
