Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for intercepting spam messages. For example, a message including one or more first characters is received, the one or more first characters not being associated with predetermined formats; the one or more first characters are converted to one or more second characters associated with the predetermined formats; the one or more second characters are determined as a feature fingerprint of message; and in response to the feature fingerprint of the message being included in a database of sample feature fingerprints, the message is determined as a spam message and the message is intercepted.
Claims20
A method for intercepting spam messages, the method includes:
- receiving a message including one or more first characters, the one or more first characters not being associated with predetermined formats;
- converting the one or more first characters to one or more second characters associated with the predetermined formats;
- determining the one or more second characters as a feature fingerprint of message;
- and
- in response to the feature fingerprint of the message being included in a database of sample feature fingerprints,
- determining the message as a spam message;
- and
- intercepting the message.
A device for intercepting spam messages, comprising:
- a reception module configured to receive a message including one or more first characters, the one or more first characters not being associated with predetermined formats;
- a conversion module configured to convert the one or more first characters to one or more second characters associated with the predetermined formats;
- a first determination module configured to determine the one or more second characters as a feature fingerprint of message;
- and
- an interception module configured to, in response to the feature fingerprint of the message being included in a database of sample feature fingerprints, determine the message as a spam message and intercept the message.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising programming instructions for intercepting spam messages, the programming instructions configured to cause one or more data processors to execute operations comprising:
- receiving a message including one or more first characters, the one or more first characters not being associated with predetermined formats;
- converting the one or more first characters to one or more second characters associated with the predetermined formats;
- determining the one or more second characters as a feature fingerprint, of message;
- and
- in response to the feature fingerprint of the message being included in a database of sample feature fingerprints,
- determining the message as a spam message;
- and
- intercepting the message.
