On Nov. 13, FinCEN released an alert shedding light on some of the negative uses of GenAI. GenAI is an incredible tool we see all around us. A simplified definition is software that can create original content upon user command. Sadly, scammers are also using Generative AI (GenAI) to create new ways to commit fraud. Here are three ways they're misusing it: 1. **Making Fake Identities** Scammers use GenAI to create fake profiles that look real, with made-up names, photos, and personal details. They use these fake identities to open bank accounts, apply for loans, or make social media profiles, making it harder to track their real identities. 2. **Creating Fake Documents and Deepfakes** GenAI can make fake IDs and documents that look almost exactly like the real thing, which makes it harder to spot fakes. Scammers also use GenAI to make deepfake videos or voice clips that imitate someone else. This can fool people into thinking they're interacting with a real person when it’s actually fake. 3. **Writing Realistic Phishing and Scam Messages** GenAI helps scammers create very convincing phishing emails, texts, and social media messages. These messages can sound just like a real person or company and trick people into clicking on harmful links or sharing private information, like passwords or credit card numbers. These GenAI-powered scams make it harder for people and companies to know what’s real, making it tougher to stop fraud. Click and read the Alert for a list of red flag indicators. #BeCareful #Fraud #FinCrime #SAR #DueDiligence #AML

It is extremely urgent to get the awareness out regarding this advisory. To spot these deepfakes, often identity documents, requires far more than a cursory glance at the item(s) in question. Education of the FLUs is the first and best line of defense and financial institutions must be proactive in their continued training and development. Remember, in a Total Quality organization, training is ongoing in perpetuity. #GenAI #FacialOverlay #SyntheticIdentity #IdentityFraud #AML #BSA #TotalQualityManagement
