Scamming - Fraud
Scammers are using sophisticated romance fraud where they use AI-generated images and videos of Brad Pitt to trick victims, primarily women, into sending large sums of money for fabricated emergencies like fake medical treatments. These scammers manipulate emotions, claim privacy issues prevent real contact, and use deepfakes to maintain the illusion, leading to financial ruin and distress for victims. A French woman lost over €800,000 due to this scam.
