scmp.com/news/asia/east-asia/article/3260197/south-korean-woman-conned-out-us50000-fake-elon-musk-she-fell-love-instagram
Quick Glance: South Korean Woman Falls Victim to $50k Elon Musk Deepfake Scam
- A South Korean woman was convinced to invest 70 million won ($50,770) after watching a fabricated video portraying someone who looked like Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, as reported locally on Tuesday.
- Jeong Ji-sun, identified by the pseudonym at KBS, disclosed her experience as a victim of a romance scam on KBS's 'In-Depth 60 Minutes.' During the episode on April 19, Jeong narrated her initial interactions with the scammer posing as Musk.
- Jeong's initial hesitations dissipated swiftly. The scammer forwarded his identification and a workplace photo to Jeong. Moreover, he discussed aspects such as his children and commuting to Tesla or SpaceX via helicopter. He further mentioned his sporadic outreach to fans.
- The program highlighted the prevalent use of AI in these romance scams. The swindler engaged in a form of deception known as 'pig butchering,' as explained by the producer. This approach involves gradually enticing victims to increase their contributions to an apparently legitimate investment before the perpetrator vanishes.
