Skilled scammers manipulate their victims so much that they don't believe their actual bank telling them it's a scam. I don't think this will help.

There are a lot more unskilled scammers looking for low hanging fruit

I'm not sure scams are so subtle. For example fishing emails are often so obviously scam that people think there are designed to filter very gullible people or very unlucky persons who actually waited for a call with the exact same context as the scammer will give.
