Detection capabilities

What SpamSmacker catches.

Detection rules built from real comment spam. Every signal is explainable — you always see why something was flagged.

Fake Giveaways & Prizes

Flags comments claiming the viewer won a prize or needs to visit an external link to claim a reward. Common in crypto and tech channels.

Examples flagged:

  • "I won 5.4 BTC! Claim at..."
  • "You are the 1,000,000th viewer"
  • "Limited time offer, claim now"

Suspicious Links

Detects off-brand URLs, obfuscated domains, and comments trying to move viewers off YouTube. Catches creative hiding like "my-site dot com".

Examples flagged:

  • "visit my site @ telegram"
  • "check out free-bitcoin[.]xyz"
  • "dm me for the link"

Impersonators

Finds accounts pretending to be you, your team, or your brand. Flags support impersonation, fake giveaways using your brand name, and official-sounding scam accounts.

Examples flagged:

  • "I'm from YouTube support team"
  • "Channel will be terminated unless..."
  • "Verified by [channel name] support"

Off-Platform Contact

Detects attempts to pull conversations off YouTube. Flags Telegram handles, WhatsApp numbers, email drops, and "reach me at" patterns.

Examples flagged:

  • "Add me on Telegram @user"
  • "WhatsApp me at +1-555-..."
  • "Email me for details"

Financial Scams

Flags investment testimonials, wealth claims, and "guaranteed returns" language. Catches fake trading signals and crypto giveaways.

Examples flagged:

  • "Mrs. X helped me make $45k"
  • "Guaranteed 10x returns"
  • "Best trading signals ever"

Prioritized Review Queue

Per comment you see:

  • Risk score (0-100)
  • Which rules triggered
  • Matched evidence text
  • One-click moderation
