The paper presents a cumulative turn‑based risk assessment framework for detecting financial scams targeting older adults, which aggregates conversational turns and updates risk estimates at each step. A multi‑turn dialogue dataset covering investment, charity, and tech support scams is created, with annotations for risk level, score, rationale, and safety recommendation at every cumulative stage. Four small language models (Phi‑4, LLaMA‑3.2, DeepSeek‑R1, Qwen3) are fine‑tuned; Phi‑4 and LLaMA‑3.2 outperform others in turn‑aware risk estimation, demonstrating that compact models can effectively support incremental scam detection in resource‑constrained, privacy‑aware deployments.
