Damn, my grandpa just got scammed for $10,000

He got a phone call from an AI voice of ‘me’ I guess. He says I needed bail money in cash because I got arrested after an accident. They sent a courier to pick up the cash. He just called me to see how I was feeling after my ‘accident’.

Man I feel so guilty and I’m not even involved. They robbed the nicest man I’ve ever known. I’m mad at a ghost.

Oh man that’s horrible. I’m sorry that happened to him. I’ve heard of this scam recently with the same story. Very frightening 😩😨

Probably not, usually the scammers use a series of mules, the courier probably didn’t event know what he was picking up

A friend's mother around 80 years old got scammed out of 80k having bought that much in Walmart gift cards for the scammer . Was able to recover some since she used a visa debit card for some purchases. It's all over, many people I know get a dozen scam calls a day.

Did the scammers use a voice like yours… or did they have your voice? Wouldnt they need a bank of audio from you to recreate your voice? … or is AI to the point it just needs a few tonal sounds from someone?

Ai only needs a word or two of your voice these days

I suspect that many spam or dead-air calls are collecting audio samples on everyone.

I wish I could hear what my grandpa heard on the call, I’m not sure how convincing it was, he’s generally very sharp for his age

God always destroys people like this in one way or another. They’ll get what is coming to them, in this life or the next.

Stay vigilant but don’t let it ruin your faith in good people doing the right thing.
