Staying aware of AI-assisted scams

AI tools have made scam messages more convincing — better grammar, more personalised details, and in some cases cloned voices.

The underlying patterns haven't changed: urgency, a request for money or credentials, and pressure to skip verification.

If a voice call sounds like a family member asking urgently for money, verify independently — call them back on a number you already have.

The same core habits (MFA, unique passwords, verifying independently) protect you regardless of how convincing the scam looks.
