📢 Beware of New Crypto Scams Using Deepfake Technology

A Russian tech company #FACCT has uncovered new crypto scams using deepfakes.

Here’s what’s happening:
🔸 Scammers are creating fake videos and audio of famous people like President-elect Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Tucker Carlson.
🔸 These deepfakes are used in ads to promote fake crypto exchanges.
3 Major #Scam Tactics Identified:

1️⃣ Fake Exchanges: Victims send tokens to fake wallets and lose their assets.
2️⃣ Crypto Predators: Scammers use malicious links to steal wallet access.
3️⃣ Scam Tokens: Coins you can buy but can’t sell.

Deepfake scams in #crypto are becoming more advanced. In 2024, even Google warned about fake AI speeches promoting investments. Earlier this year, a fake YouTube live stream used Elon Musk’s AI voice to mislead investors.

Crypto-friendly moves by Trump:
President-elect Trump has shown support for crypto, promising a national Bitcoin reserve and plans to appoint pro-crypto leaders to key regulatory positions.

⚠️ Stay safe: Always double-check links, platforms, and opportunities. Don’t trust unverified ads or offers.
