What’s Really Happening?

AI fraud isn’t a distant possibility—it’s already here. According to recent reports from Forbes, CanIPhish, and Euronews, AI scams are expected to explode in 2025. From deepfake impersonations to AI-generated phishing and even synthetic digital identities, the tools being used are more advanced and dangerous than ever.

Top Emerging AI Scam Tactics

• Deepfake Voice & Video Scams: Fraudsters use AI to mimic voices of family members, CEOs, or colleagues to trick you into urgent money transfers or data sharing.

• AI-Powered Phishing Emails: Hyper-personalized and nearly undetectable, these emails can bypass traditional security filters.

• Synthetic Identities: Criminals are creating entirely fake identities using generative AI to apply for loans or open accounts.

• Automated Fraud Bots: Programs that run scams at scale, even integrating into legitimate platforms via APIs.

• AI Agents Handling Financial Data: As noted by Euronews, companies like Visa are exploring AI agents that manage your credit card data—opening new doors for misuse if not properly secured.

How Can You Stay Protected?

At Mensaflow, we believe awareness and intelligent design are the best defenses. Here’s what we recommend:

✅ Use multi-factor authentication wherever possible
