Not every cyberthreat comes from a sophisticated hacker. Many scammers succeed simply because they know how to pull on your emotions, and AI is making that easier than ever. With today's video generation tools, anyone can produce a polished, heartwarming ad with very little technical skills or budget. You might even receive the product you ordered, but that does not mean the operation is legitimate. These ads often fabricate stories to build trust and extract your money or personal information. As AI video technology continues to improve, these tactics will only become more convincing.
