The voice sounds right, the way they speak feels familiar, and the situation seems serious. There is just one problem: it may not actually be them on the other end of the line.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With artificial intelligence tools, criminals can create audio that mimics the voices of relatives, friends, coworkers, and even company executives. <\/span><b>AI voice cloning<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has made emergency and impersonation scams increasingly convincing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This threat is part of a broader evolution in online fraud. As we explain in our article on<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/5-trending-digital-scams-how-ai-is-making-fraud-more-dangerous\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5 trending digital scams and how AI is making fraud more dangerous<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, criminals are already using AI to improve phishing, fake call centers, and other forms of social engineering.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That makes recognizing suspicious calls and verifying a story before taking action more important than ever.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is AI voice cloning?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Voice cloning uses artificial intelligence to reproduce characteristics of a person&#8217;s speech, including tone, rhythm, and intonation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is closely related to <\/span><b>deepfake technology<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which can generate convincing fake images, videos, and audio. In our guide to<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/deepfakes-the-new-weapon-of-digital-scammers\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">deepfakes and how scammers are using them<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, we explain how these tools can be used for financial fraud and impersonation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When used legitimately, voice cloning can have many applications. The problem begins when scammers use an artificial voice to impersonate someone you know and gain your trust.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A criminal might pretend to be:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your child or another relative facing an emergency;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a friend who urgently needs money;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your boss requesting a transfer;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">someone you know asking for personal information;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a representative of a company or institution.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The goal is usually to make you react before you have enough time to verify what is actually happening.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How does an AI voice cloning scam work?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The script can vary, but these scams usually exploit two things: <\/span><b>trust and urgency<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You receive a phone call or voice message that appears to come from someone you know. They describe an accident, financial problem, arrest, or another emergency and ask for money, personal information, or immediate action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scammers may combine the cloned voice with personal information found online or obtained through leaked data, making the story even more believable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/consumer.ftc.gov\/consumer-alerts\/2023\/03\/scammers-use-ai-enhance-their-family-emergency-schemes\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Federal Trade Commission<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> warns that scammers can use a short audio clip, potentially taken from content posted online, to clone a loved one&#8217;s voice and create a fake emergency. Its key advice is simple: do not trust the voice alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How can you identify an AI-cloned voice?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is not always possible to detect fake audio simply by listening to it. As the technology improves, relying exclusively on imperfections in the voice becomes less reliable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still, certain warning signs should make you more cautious.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>1. There is unusual urgency<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI need the money right now.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDon&#8217;t tell anyone.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSend it before it&#8217;s too late.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating pressure is a common scam tactic. The more urgent the situation feels, the less time the victim has to verify the story.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. The request is unexpected<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be suspicious if someone you know suddenly asks for money, banking information, passwords, authentication codes, or other sensitive information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if the voice sounds legitimate, the request itself should make sense.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. They try to stop you from verifying the story<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A scammer may give you reasons not to hang up or contact anyone else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That behavior is an important warning sign.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. There are small inconsistencies<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unusual pauses, changes in intonation, or strange responses may appear in manipulated audio. But these signs should never be your only method of detection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even a convincing recording can be fake.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Keep reading \u2014 PSafe<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/5-trending-digital-scams-how-ai-is-making-fraud-more-dangerous\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/5-trending-digital-scams-how-ai-is-making-fraud-more-dangerous\/<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/deepfakes-the-new-weapon-of-digital-scammers\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/deepfakes-the-new-weapon-of-digital-scammers\/<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/protect-social-engineering-attacks\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/protect-social-engineering-attacks\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>What should I do if I receive a suspicious call?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important rule is simple: <\/span><b>end the call and verify the story using a phone number you already know<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If someone calls claiming to be your child, for example, hang up and call the number saved in your contacts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not automatically call a number provided during the suspicious conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you cannot reach the person, contact another trusted family member or friend who may be able to verify the situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/consumer.ftc.gov\/articles\/scammers-use-fake-emergencies-steal-your-money\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FTC&#8217;s guidance on family emergency scams<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> gives similar advice: resist pressure to send money immediately and contact the person through a phone number you know is legitimate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Create a family safe word<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One simple precaution is to agree on a family safe word or verification question that only people close to you should know.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If someone contacts you claiming there is an emergency, this information can provide an additional layer of verification.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it should not replace other security measures. If something feels suspicious, end the conversation and contact the person through another trusted channel.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What if the request comes from my boss or a company?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same principle applies in the workplace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A familiar voice should not be considered sufficient proof to authorize payments, change banking information, or share confidential data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Companies can reduce the risk by creating verification procedures for sensitive requests, particularly financial transfers. Voice cloning is one part of a broader social-engineering problem.
