Rule 666 - As often as new "devices" are created by homo sapiens so will other homo sapiens adopt/use them to make money - rule 666!!

Scammers can also now create realistic fake videos of loved ones asking for money because they are stranded or some other scam. All the scammers need is a few photos of someone. Anyone with a Facebook page accessible by the public that has a bunch of photos is all they need to make the video. AI doesn't need many photos either. Some families are making secret words or phrases that will identify loved ones if anyone suspects scams like this. Its getting crazy out there.

Thank you phone companies for the spam filters. Until AI figures out how to get past those filters this one has little chance of going anywhere.

I have yet to see a spam filter that works. I block phone numbers and email addresses daily and they keep coming.

That is just evil to do that to people.

Yes- that's definitely the correct word. Evil.
