Scams are a big problem, but what happens when scammers use AI to fleece you? Pickr joins ABC in the PM to explain.
Online criminals are always looking for new ways to relieve you of any money you have, and if you’re posting to social, they now could be using your voice against you.
AI is a part of this devious scam, which sees a clone of your voice used in extortion attempts on people you know, creating a frustrating scam intended to pull on the heart strings of people to know with a sense of urgency that’s difficult to be avoided.
How can we stop this, and what tips can be used to keep your friends and family on alert?
On ABC SA & NT Evenings with Spence Denny, Pickr’s Leigh Stark covered exactly that. Hear it on the February 11 program over at ABC from the 1 hour 40 minute mark (before ABC takes it down).
