The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has led to an increase in sophisticated scams, particularly targeting accountants and clients through deepfakes, voice cloning, and hyper-realistic phishing emails. Experts from various organizations, including Gen Digital Inc., have highlighted the risks associated with AI's ability to impersonate individuals and steal identities. A recent study by Consumer Reports revealed that many leading AI voice-cloning products lack adequate safeguards to prevent misuse and fraud. This growing trend of AI-driven scams poses a significant threat as scammers leverage advanced technologies to create convincing fraudulent communications, raising concerns about cybersecurity and the need for improved protective measures.
