Norton Genie will analyze suspicious email and messages and alert the user if a <a href=\"https:\/\/davescomputertips.com\/how-to-identify-deal-with-scams\/\">scam<\/a> is identified.<\/p>\n<p>Norton Genie is available via a <a href=\"https:\/\/us.norton.com\/products\/genie-scam-detector\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">website<\/a> and apps are available for both iOS and Android devices. It&#8217;s important to note that Norton Genie is AI-driven and, at this stage, still in learning mode, so has not yet been perfected. Also, apps are currently available only in the US, UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.<\/p>\n<h2>How To Use Norton Genie<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/davescomputertips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Norton-Genie-Banner.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-134141\" src=\"https:\/\/davescomputertips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Norton-Genie-Banner.png\" alt=\"Norton Genie Banner\" width=\"602\" height=\"192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/davescomputertips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Norton-Genie-Banner.png 602w, https:\/\/davescomputertips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Norton-Genie-Banner-350x112.png 350w, https:\/\/davescomputertips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Norton-Genie-Banner-150x48.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 602px) 100vw, 602px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Think your texts, emails, or social media messages are scams?
