| Falling for scams happens to everyone! |
Scams are prevalent and happen everyday to many people around the world. There have been a multitude of scams that have came across my computer and phone everyday. The scariest scam that I have encountered is with the help of artificial intelligence. This scam gives people access to a loved ones voice where they are asking for money for whatever reason. This scam is particularly scary due to the realness of the voice behind the phone! The easiest way to combat this would be understanding that the number their calling on isnt saved in your phone and having a quick realization that you can call that loved one and make sure they are the ones that actually called you.

You’re absolutely right, scams can happen to anyone. The AI voice scams are especially scary because they sound so real. Verifying by calling your loved one directly is a smart and simple way to stay safe.
Yes! verifying by calling a loved one is the best precaution to take in this situation!
Wow walker. That is really scary! I hope I don’t encounter the AI one because that would just freak me out so much. Thanks for sharing!
I agree Reagan! This form of scamming is scary and something that I hope never happens to anyone else.
This was very insightful Walker thank you so much. I will make sure to look out for these scams.
Of course! Make sure to let everyone know so something like this doesn’t happen to you or your friends or family!
My Grandma has been a victim of these types of scams and I had to help her regain her identity back.
I am so sorry to hear about your Grandma Lukas! I hope all is well and that you informed her on the necessary precautions to take.
