AI Voice Cloning Scams: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being seen as a big possibility in the world of technology. Just as the Internet changed the whole world, the same is being said about AI. The rapidly growing popularity of AI is an indication that common people are also taking interest in it. However, every new technology brings advantages as well as disadvantages. It is the same with AI, because amidst its increasing trend, the incidents of fraud are also increasing.
Cyber criminals have got the magic wand in the form of artificial intelligence. People are being cheated in new ways by using AI.
At this time scammers are also using AI for voice cloning. That is, people get voice calls, and later they get cheated. Let's know how all this happens?
Increase in crime due to AI
America's Federal Trade Commission President Leena Khan recently said that AI is being used to increase crimes wildly. Now it has to be seen how government agencies deal with crimes related to AI. Actually, AI has opened a new way for cybercriminals to commit fraud.
Fraud by voice cloning
People get calls from family and friends. Upon receiving the call, a familiar voice rings in, and the caller informs that he is in trouble and needs immediate help. In America, a woman got a call from her 15 year old daughter who had gone on a skiing trip. The daughter was saying on the call, "Help me mom, please help me."
Then a person asked for a ransom of $ 1 million (about Rs 8 crore) on the call. The woman got scared on hearing this.
Trying to cheat with fake voice
The woman had no doubt on the daughter's voice. This call came from an unknown number. The woman called the daughter and thankfully she picked up the call. In this way, this woman was saved from being cheated by cybercriminals. But do you know how all this happened? Fraudsters copied daughter's voice through AI cloning tool.
AI based voice cloning tools are easily available on the internet. Most of these are free, so anyone's real voice preparation can be done through them. Scammers need a small sample to create a fake voice.
If someone calls you like this, then definitely try to know its reality. You can pacify by calling on their personal number.
