This Is How Scammers Create Deepfakes | Weaponizing AI

Deepfake videos and audio are common on the internet. Sometimes it is just for entertainment and enjoyment. But sometimes deepfakes are used for malicious intent or spreading false information. This video takes a look at the technology behind it.

Deepfake videos can be used for social engineering, persuading a victim to take an action. Scammers are typically trying to convince victim's to invest in a fraudulent scheme such as cryptocurrency or bogus investment companies. Hackers could potentially use it for phishing, putting together videos that appear to be a CEO for example.

My recommended products (so far) that I use as a lone wolf operator:

Malwarebytes Premium - Antimalware software suitable for personal use and not an option for business users. Affiliate link included - feel free to go to Malwarebytes in your browser if you don't want to include my link https://prf.hn/l/5NL4PJj

CyberGhost - I had no problems with this VPN and highly recommend. They are based in Romania where the laws on privacy are not so strict. Not truly anonymous but good for privacy. https://www.cyberghostvpn.com/en_US/

KeePass - Excellent offline password manager that I recommend rather than using a cloud service. https://keepass.info/
