Security Expert 'Almost' Fooled by Shocking AI Scam Call Targeting Gmail Accounts

Tech Times

With AI growth, internet scams increase proportionally. Just recently, an expert in security shared with the general public a new high-level AI-based scam that is targeting its victims to steal the Gmail account details of such users.

'Super Realistic' AI-Powered Scam Calls

He said the scam was "super realistic," and many people could have easily been taken in by it. Not the first time AI has been used in scams, though: in Mitrovic's account lies what the methods have come to be so advanced.
