Incident 17983 Report
Purported AI Impersonations of Executives Allegedly Helped Defraud Companies Worldwide of About $129 Million

2024-10-08

Federal prosecutors in New York alleged that a fraud ring used AI to mimic executives' voices and sometimes their images on calls with company employees. Accomplices posing as lawyers then directed employees to wire money for sham transactions. The indictment attributes about $129 million in losses worldwide to the scheme, including about $4.83 million from a Missouri hospital system.
