Generative Artificial Intelligence and Financial Fraud

The FBI has warned of a significant increase in cybercrime facilitated by generative AI. Criminals are exploiting AI's capabilities to produce realistic deepfakes for social engineering, spear phishing, and various financial scams. This includes creating convincing fake identities, documents, and even audio and video impersonations. The ease and speed with which AI can generate this fraudulent content significantly reduces the effort required for criminals to deceive their victims. The alerts highlight the use of generative AI in romance scams, investment fraud, and other deceptive schemes. These tools are proving increasingly effective in circumventing traditional fraud detection methods.
