Some tips for avoiding scams
Artificial Intelligence (AI) makes scams even more convincing. Follow these tips to stay safe:
– Ask callers to confirm their identity especially if they’re asking for money or personal information.
– Unexpected call? Listen out for long pauses, a lack of emotion, and signs of a distorted voice.
– Online videos? Look for anything unusual in the face, body movements, hands and background – they could be faked.
– Do your research. Are celebrities promoting topics they wouldn’t usually talk about?
– Trust your instincts. If a deal looks too good to be true it probably is.
