Abstract

This research delves into the widespread issue of unwanted information proliferating across social media platforms, aiming to deter users from falling prey to fraudulent schemes, including online payment scams and personal data theft. To address this, machine learning classifiers, namely Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Support Vector Mechanism (SVM), are employed. The study meticulously gathers and preprocesses data, adopting a rigorous method of training and testing using both algorithms on 20 samples, 10 per group. With a focus on predictive accuracy, parameters include a G power of 80%, a confidence interval of 0.95, and alpha and beta values of 0.05 and 0.2 respectively. Notably, CNN outperforms SVM, boasting an accuracy of 97.35% against SVM's 95.72%. The marked difference is statistically significant at p=0.023. In essence, the study aims to bolster online security and privacy, given the myriad threats users face, including phishing, malicious URLs, and fake job postings.
