TeleAntiFraud 2.0 is a monthly‑frozen, audio‑based benchmark for telecom fraud detection that incorporates newly observed scam patterns while preserving earlier test sets. It uses a Mixed‑Tree Anti‑Fraud Generation Pipeline to create profile‑grounded scenarios, expands them into mixed‑tree dialogues, and renders validated speech for 900 Chinese calls (600 fraud, 300 near‑domain non‑fraud) each month. Experiments show that classifiers perform well against unrelated negatives but drop significantly against near‑domain negatives, highlighting the need for near‑domain construction and collapse‑aware reporting in realistic evaluation settings.

FRAUDSkill is a structured frozen‑weight adaptation framework for audio anti‑fraud detection that keeps the underlying audio‑language model unchanged while optimizing external skill programs, route‑specific policies, and decision rules. It combines structured output control with validation‑guided multi‑path inference to produce protocol‑compliant predictions. On the TeleAntiFraud benchmark, FRAUDSkill achieves a 73.50% Macro‑F1 score, outperforming the shared frozen‑model baseline by 31.96% and reducing invalid outputs to 1.94%.

Recently, speech classification methods have gained widespread adoption in intelligent gadgets. Current study indicates that backdoor attacks provide a substantial security concern to these models, underscoring the pressing necessity to investigate additional potential attack techniques to expose and prevent such risks.

The paper reviews how voice authentication has evolved from handcrafted acoustic features to deep learning speaker embeddings, expanding its use in finance, smart devices, and law enforcement. It surveys modern threats—including data poisoning, adversarial, deepfake, and adversarial spoofing attacks—tracing their development alongside technological advances. For each attack type, the authors summarize methods, datasets, performance, and limitations, and organize the literature using accepted taxonomies to highlight emerging risks and open challenges.
