# Fake Detection

{% hint style="info" %}
By default, Themis uses the proven dictionary that is applicable universally and is safe for most servers. Highly recommend to use it for NFT/Crypto related servers. 
{% endhint %}

Using two types of dictionary, Themis is able to check whether there are server members pretending to be another user or using another person's identity. In addition, using the Global Dictionary, Themis can effectively detect spam bots and ban them from your server. In addition, the IDs of spam bots are globally blacklisted and banned on all other servers where Themis is invited.

After selecting `Fake Detection` in the selector, you will see the following menu:

#### Security

`Status` - a binary parameter indicating the status of the function. It can be disabled or enabled. If Status is set to Enabled, Themis will use Global Dictionary and eliminate spam bots only.&#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
**Fun fact:** Themis is the **first bot** to start using dictionaries to **identify spam bots**. The system was created **(20 Oct 2021)** and tested on **Divine Anarchy** server and was called **Bot Slayer**. It was used to ban over 500 spam bots and thus save the server community from attacks.

#### Whitelist

<figure><img src="/files/Jo2qXm3AcoAG0jhX4Rb1" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

This option allows you to add users that Themis will ignore. That is, even if their name is in the dictionary, Themis will not pay attention to them. This option is effective when you want to add staff to the list and when checking the server, Themis will ignore them and ban those who try to use their identity.

#### Dictionary

Local Dictionary is used for in-server moderation. By entering a name in the dictionary, Themis will ban all users who have that name. Local Dictionary will only be used on the server where it has been activated and will not be extended to other servers. For example, you can put staff names in there so that Themis can block pretenders who use your name to scam users.

![](/files/W8Ajw6gvt4ZSwMClsQjv)You can export the Local Dictionary from your server.

#### Logs

* Logs channel can be assigned with a button
* Logs can be exported in TXT, CSV and XML
