The agency noted that modern technologies, such as artificial intelligence (deepfake), allow malefactors to create fake messages from well-known figures, including the president. The main goal of such materials is to mislead people, gain their trust, and persuade them to transfer money or share personal data.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs strongly recommends:
- to ignore videos from dubious sources;
- to verify information only through official channels of government organizations;
- to avoid clicking on suspicious links;
- not to share personal data or transfer money based on videos found online.
The agency emphasizes that scammers exploit the trust of citizens and urges everyone to be vigilant and verify information before reacting.
