Phishing scams are NOT easy to identify. With AI powering fake emails, websites, and messages, even seasoned professionals can be fooled. Please warn your clients.
The scammers are becoming more and more sophisticated. That make the scam more difficult and advanced so detection is harder than ever.
AI is being used to create emails, websites and messages that match those of well known individuals and companies. AI makes it seem real.
If you buy online, make sure the website is legitimate and trusted.
It doesn’t matter if you are experienced in the ways of the world. The refinement, cleverness, and cultivation of today’s scammers can fool you too. Be careful of emails that say you have a problem. Do not answer other than to phone a number that you know or can verify, NOT the number on the email or website. Unless it is a known source, consider using it very carefully.
Take care out there.
