Hong Kong Syndicate Allegedly Used AI-Generated Facial Composites to Open Bank Accounts
2025-04-07
Hong Kong police arrested eight individuals accused of using AI-generated facial composites to open bank accounts with altered ID photos. Of 44 applications, 30 reportedly succeeded after passing online identity checks. The accounts were then allegedly used to apply for loans and make credit card purchases totaling HK$860,000, and to launder over HK$1.2 million in suspected criminal proceeds. Police linked the operation to local triad-affiliated fraud networks.
