The FBI warns that criminals are using AI-generated texts for social engineering and fraud schemes, emphasizing the need for awareness and proactive measures to detect AI-fueled scams.
Establishing a code word with loved ones is a practical step to verify the identity of callers, especially when AI voice cloning makes impersonation more believable.
Voice agents, while useful against scams, can also facilitate fraud due to their human-like qualities, making them an alarming tool in the hands of scammers.
