Police impersonators making Deepfake video calls
Criminals use AI to create faces and uniforms that look exactly like real police, deliberately make the video glitchy as if the signal is weak, then call to claim the victim is involved in a serious money-laundering case.
Frightened victims follow the instructions and transfer all their savings into an account described as 'held for investigation' — and lose everything.
Remember: the police never handle cases or ask for money transfers over the phone. Every real investigation comes with a summons delivered in person.
