A deep dive into the new economics of AI-powered scams, and what leaders need to do about it
@Mohib Thank you for another terrific post!
Glad to be featured!
Guys, can we add a sixth one here? Senior leadership going to conferences sponsored by AI tools and then coming back to their offices saying that they can replace all their staff with AI?
100% Hodman!!!
😂
That's happening more and more.
True.
Trust signals are getting weaker, but the risk keeps getting stronger.
It is, John!
The scam is usually not new.
What changed is how cheap and believable it has become.
That is why this matters.
The old tricks still work, but now they can be dressed up properly and pushed at scale.
100%
Very true!
Leaders must harden processes, train teams, and verify everything before acting.
Leaders need proactive policies, realistic training, and verification systems to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated fraud
Yes, true.
Scary times ahead. Bad guys tried to scam my parents last week using my deepfake voice e infos. Told them they kidnapped me and wanted a ransom.
that's sad to hear!
Brazil is wild lol
That’s really sad to hear, and yes, we are living in a scary era - the only defense we have is awareness.
I worry more about the old heads, they have zero awareness
Yes, it has to be one of the biggest problems - convincing your family or people who aren’t up-to-date with the modern world about such issues.
