华盛顿州百余大学生 24 小时黑客松：开发防金融诈骗工具，冠军作品实时识别通话诈骗
第二届 HuskyHack 黑客松上周末在华盛顿大学 Tacoma 分校举行。Sound 信用合作社与该校 Milgard 商业分析中心共同主办，100 多名来自全州各高校的学生在 24 小时内开发金融科技方案。
今年的赛题直指金融诈骗：设计工具，帮助信用合作社识别会员何时正被操纵、胁迫或欺骗，并在资金被骗走之前介入。第一阶段的三支优胜队伍各获 1000 美元；最终大奖为 15000 美元奖金与西雅图 CoMotion Labs 六个月会员资格。
冠军作品是金融系学生 Colin Sica 与 Noah Soepardi 开发的 Scout：一项实时诈骗识别服务，监测通话内容中的常见诈骗话术；当来电者索要钱款、密码、账户信息、验证码或远程访问权限时，Scout 会将来电置于保持状态并私下提醒会员，由会员决定继续、挂断或安全转接信用合作社。（GSM 据 PR Newswire 报道）
100-Plus Washington Students Build Anti-Fraud Tools in 24-Hour HuskyHack: Winning App Flags Scam Calls in Real Time
The second annual HuskyHack took place over the weekend at the University of Washington Tacoma. Co-hosted by Sound Credit Union and the university's Milgard Center for Business Analytics, the event drew more than 100 students from colleges across the state to build fintech solutions in 24 hours.
This year's challenge targeted financial fraud: design a tool that helps the credit union recognize when a member is being manipulated, compromised or deceived, and intervene before money is lost. Three top pitches in the first phase each won $1,000; the grand prize was $15,000 plus a six-month membership at CoMotion Labs in Seattle.
The winning entry was Scout, built by finance students Colin Sica and Noah Soepardi: a live scam-detection service that monitors phone conversations for common fraud tactics. When a caller requests money, passwords, account information, verification codes or remote access, Scout places the caller on hold and privately alerts the member, who can continue the call, end it, or connect safely with the credit union.
