What is an AI Voice scam?
Robot scams using artificial intelligence are on the rise, mimicking human voices to extort money. This trend began around 2019 when deepfaking surfaced. Since then, AI has become more powerful and prevalent in our daily lives.
Recently, there have been reports of scammers taking voice samples from social media videos and using AI to clone the voice. They then use this cloned voice to call the person’s family, attempting to scam them out of money.
AI Call Scanner on Truecaller
Truecaller has developed a new feature called AI Call Scanner. According to the company, this feature is a first-of-its-kind technology to identify AI voices in real-time while you’re on the call.

In my opinion, the introduction of AI Call Scanner marks a significant step forward in the fight against sophisticated AI-driven scams. As technology continues to evolve, so do the tactics of scammers, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between genuine calls and fraudulent ones. This new feature will not only enhance the security of phone communications but also provide peace of mind to users, ensuring that they can trust the voices they hear.
