A scammer called one of my friend with one number claiming to be me and possibly mimicked my voice using A1 or whatever. He claimed that his phone was off because he slept in the hospital. for my friend I was the one talking. He told him that my mother was at hospital laying critically sick and  ask for financial support.


what can we do, to avoid being a victim.


this is also the disadvantage of AI(artificial Intelligence) because of everything now is possible and look they can Mimic our voices to pretend it was us? so it is easy for them to scam people though it is still stupidity to be franked by other people when we knew who or what our friends way of talking.
and when asking about connected to money? then this is stupidity for me and yes I will never fall from that unless talking to the person I really knew.
and another thing that this bogus scammers had been doing this since long time , pretending to be someone and our family members are hospitalized to make us take our money out and hand them over them.
