Police Bulletin

On May 10, 2024, Xiaolong (pseudonym), a resident of Pengyang County, reported to the police that he had a message from a strange friend when he was browsing Kuaishou videos, and after he was added as a QQ friend, the other party sent a QQ video call (the other party used AI technology to change his face, and the avatar was his relative during the video) saying that he was working in Africa, the network was unstable, and it was inconvenient to transfer money, but he urgently needed to sign a contract with the company, hoping that Xiaolong could help him advance the contract funds to the company, and repay the money to Xiaolong after the network stabilized. Based on his trust in his relatives and having "verified" his identity through video chat, Xiaolong transferred 15,000 yuan to the bank account designated by the other party in three times. Afterwards, Xiaolong sent WeChat to his relatives to verify that he was deceived, and it turned out that the scammer pretended to be a relative to defraud him through AI face swapping and onomatopoeia technology.

Police Reminder:

01

Protect information and prevent leakage. Do not expose personal information such as faces, fingerprints, and voices on the Internet.

02

Multiple verifications to confirm identity. You can ask the other person to wave their hands, press their nose, pinch their face, etc., in front of their face, and observe whether their face is deformed, shaky, etc. You can also call the person's usual phone number, rather than the so-called "new number", to further verify the person's identity.

03

Eliminate temptation and be vigilant. Do not log in, do not download unknown websites and software, and do not click on advertisements and winning information sent by unknown platforms to avoid being invaded by viruses.

04

If you are accidentally deceived or encounter suspicious situations, please pay attention to protect the evidence and call the police immediately on 110.

these ways

Easily identify AI "face and voice change"

The emergence of AI face swapping technology has led to hearing being virtual and seeing not necessarily believing. So how can we prevent it? Experts said that in fact, no matter how realistic the AI artificial face swap is, there are still some ways to identify the authenticity of the video.

Urgent reminder! Pengyang has the first case!

For example, we can ask the other party to perform a real-time fake video by waving in front of the face during the video conversation, because it needs to generate and process the video in real time and change the face of the AI.

Urgent reminder! Pengyang has the first case!

Then in the process of waving his hand, it will cause the interference of this kind of facial data, and the final effect is what we see, in the process of waving, the face he forged will produce a certain amount of shaking or some flashes, or some abnormal situations.

Urgent reminder! Pengyang has the first case!

The second is that in peer-to-peer communication, you can ask some questions that only the other party knows to verify the authenticity of the other party.
