Louisiana State University received a $388,063 Project Grant award dated May 15, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), administered by the National Science Foundation's Division of Computer and Network Systems. The award supports a five-year CAREER research initiative extending through April 30, 2031, focused on developing a research framework to measure and defend against interactive social engineering attacks and online scams. The project delivers research-based products and datasets by systematically analyzing knowledge and practices from the global scambaiting community—individuals who deliberately engage scammers to study their tactics—and combining these insights with controlled experimental methodologies to advance understanding of scammer persuasion techniques during real-time conversational attacks. The primary deliverables include comprehensive datasets of conversational interactions between controlled systems and scam perpetrators, incorporating ethical safeguards; detection methods leveraging conversational patterns, behavioral signals from computer activity, and voice characteristics to identify scam attempts; and a systematic framework for understanding interactive social engineering attack dynamics. Additionally, the project produces educational workshops and public awareness materials designed to strengthen community resilience against online fraud and improve societal capability to detect and disrupt online scams. Research will be performed at Louisiana State University's Baton Rouge, Louisiana campus.Federal Grant Award Summary
