Seeing is no longer believing: AI makes scams indistinguishable from reality.
Artificial intelligence has industrialised deception: a few seconds of audio are enough to clone a voice, a few photos to fabricate a deepfake video, and AI-generated phishing messages no longer contain typos or awkward phrasing. The old tells (“it's badly written, so it's fake”) no longer work.
The new scams play on raw emotion: your child's voice in distress on the phone, a video call from your “boss” demanding a transfer, a celebrity endorsing an investment. The defence is no longer detecting fakes by ear, but verifying through another channel: calling back on the known number, using a family code word, never acting under imposed urgency. That's exactly what this theme trains.
Understand what "AI-generated content" really covers, beyond the cliché of a crude fake.
Content can be generated and very realistic: appearance no longer proves anything.
10 exercises per level, mixing decision, spotting and quiz. The first 2 levels are free; the next ones open with the Elite subscription.
Each level ends with a mission: what remains to be done once the lesson is understood. Some rely on your report, others on a setting we cannot see: it says so each time.
Take an image that struck you this week and run a reverse image search on a search engine. Look for where it first appeared. Looks prove nothing any more; the source does.
Choose a code word with your family, never written down online, to ask for on any emergency call that asks for money. A voice can be cloned from short clips. A secret agreed face to face can't.
A public video where you can be heard talking is raw material for a fake. Restrict the ones that don't need to be public, and warn your family: a video of you asking for money gets checked by calling you.
An AI-written phishing email has no mistakes and calls you by name. Look at what's out there about you: any message that quotes these details and asks you to act gets checked through a channel you choose, not the one it offers.
Take the last surprising piece of news you got in a group chat. Before forwarding it, find where it was first published and at least one reliable source that confirms it. Without both, it stops with you.
