I strongly urge users to enforce a strict 10-minute pause on all urgent requests, verifying alerts through official channels instead of provided links, and using app-based authentication alongside a secret family passcode to counter voice cloning | nitter.cf/YusuphKileo/status/210โฆ
Online scamming is no longer a collection of isolated hackers, but a highly industrialized, multi-billion-dollar global criminal economy
Thanks @AJEnglish for putting this very well
The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence has fundamentally supercharged these operations, making scams incredibly difficult to spot.
Criminals leverage generative AI, voice cloning, and video deepfakes to eliminate traditional red flags like poor grammar or suspicious accents.

Telegram is a mess, and it happens to be the most popular app in Cambodia. Malware disguised as everyday files is spreading through it, and one click is all it takes. Post and Telecom Minister Chea Vandeth is warning people not to open attachments ending in .exe, .bat, .vbs, .ps1, .msi or .scr. Files named and captioned in Khmer to look legit. Government says many of the attacks trace back overseas.

FBI OPERATION RIPTIDE is an ongoing, coordinated law enforcement campaign targeting criminal actors and the key services they rely onโtheir infrastructure, their tools and services, their communications, and their money.
But what is "NO SAFE HARBOR"? The FBI is putting cybercriminals on notice that there is no where they can hide to escape our commitment to stopping themโnot behind technology, assumed anonymity, or international borders. We will continue to work with our LE partners here and abroad to apply consistent pressure on cybercriminals, demonstrating there are no safe harbors for them or the infrastructure, platforms, and financial networks which support their activity exist anywhere. #Cyber
