The Sentry Dual Mode Call Blocker does not specifically mention recognizing potential scammers. It blocks callers on the Black List and allows the user to block all "No Caller ID" calls. It uses a White List and an Advanced Blocking mode with "Stop and Check," but it does not claim to detect or recognize scammers automatically.
