Inspiration
Our main idea is a community-based solution like Reddit. We aim to create a forum where users can share their recent experiences with scams.
What it does
The forum allows users to share their recent experiences with scams. By using this platform, others can be informed about the latest scam methods. This awareness helps users recognize potential scams and prevent themselves from falling victim. Additionally, we offer features like monthly scam analytics and educational resources to help users stay informed about scam tactics.
How we built it
We conceived the idea and built the application using Flutter for the front end and Firebase for the back end.
Challenges we ran into
As first-time hackathon participants, we faced challenges in brainstorming impactful ideas. Additionally, balancing time was difficult since all four team members were full-time interns with limited availability.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We successfully implemented the fundamental functions of the application.
What we learned
We learned the importance of planning ahead and effective time management.
What's next for BlocScam
We plan to add more features and enhance the user interface to make it more pleasant and user-friendly.
