What once required Hollywood-level resources can now be done on a laptop in minutes. Deepfake technology has democratized digital deception.
How Deepfakes Are Used in Scams
Criminals create fake video or audio of executives, family members, or authority figures to authorize fraudulent wire transfers or extract sensitive information. In 2024, a Hong Kong company lost $25 million to a deepfake video call impersonating their CFO.
Detecting AI-Generated Content
Afensia's deepfake detection analyzes micro-artifacts in videos and images that are invisible to the human eye but unmistakable to AI — inconsistent blinking patterns, unnatural skin textures, audio-visual desynchronization.
What You Can Do
If you receive a suspicious video or voice message, upload it to Afensia for instant analysis. Never authorize financial transactions based solely on a video call.
