Getting Started

ScamShield is designed to work out of the box with minimal setup. Once the bot is in your server, it immediately starts monitoring messages for scam content.

What You’ll Need

  • A Discord server where you have Manage Server permissions
  • The bot invite link from the ScamShield website

Setup Process

  1. Invite the bot — Use the invite link and authorize it for your server
  2. Configure actions — Visit the web dashboard to set up what happens when scams are detected
  3. Set an alert channel — Choose where detection alerts are posted
  4. Done — The bot works silently in the background
