A look at how these attacks are evolving and the best responses to them.

As AI technology advances, scams have become more realistic and harder to detect. Recently some experts at Psono.com highlighted how modern scams like AI-powered phishing, clone emails, and others are using personal data to create more convincing attacks.

"AI is changing how scammers operate, making their attacks more personal and harder to spot," states Sascha Pfeiffer, CEO of Psono. "They use tools to mimic voices, create fake videos, or send messages that seem to come from trusted contacts. It's now easier than ever to fall for a scam. Staying alert is important, as these scams can lead to serious financial losses. Under no condition should you share very personal data, such as passport details or credit card CVV, via email, phone, or any other method that can be easily accessed by hackers. Additionally, if you hear the voice of a close person asking for help, take extra precautions to verify their identity by asking specific questions or details only they would know, ensuring you're speaking to the real person."
