00:00 There are activities that are being done by artificial intelligence or AI.

00:05 For example, the bar barista can now be made into an AI robot named Adam.

00:11 But there are also things that are being done by AI like copying voices,

00:18 which is possible to be done in fake videos of some reporters of GMA Integrated News.

00:23 There is now a Mama Mary necklace that came from the Vatican.

00:27 Because of AI, online scams are still increasing this year according to Scamwatch Philippines.

00:32 Before, if you received an email with wrong grammar, it's a scam.

00:38 Now, because of AI, they will put it in the chat GPT.

00:42 Scams are now more realistic because scammers can now hold personal information

00:48 from hacked agencies.

00:50 Hyper-personalized scamming techniques.

00:53 Anyone can believe it.

00:55 Because the grammar is perfect, their links look real.

01:00 The theft of information from cellphones is also increasing,

01:04 especially those used in financial transactions.

01:07 Scams are also being held in the Facebook marketplace.

01:11 According to the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center or CICC,

01:16 there are now 13,000 verified complaints about scams in the marketplace

01:20 since November 2023.

01:23 CICC is now taking action on the owner of Facebook, Meta.

01:27 They are slow to act.

01:29 It's supposed to be self-regulating.

01:31 For example, this scam was identified.

01:34 A new name appeared, but the IP is the same.

01:37 All they have to do is just block that IP.

01:39 If Meta does not take action, it will face penalties and sanctions.

01:43 We are still trying to get the statement of Meta.

01:51 In the possible risk of scams, experts say,

01:54 you should be the last line of defense.

01:57 According to ScamWatch, doubt and verify all the received messages and emails.

02:04 Be watchful of online attacks, like those involving work or racket.

02:09 And don't just send money online.

02:13 All the personal social media accounts of content creator Julian Tolentino

02:19 and the account that has no fan page is now recovered.

02:22 It's connected to a personal account that has more than 100,000 followers.

02:26 It's starting again. It's hard from scratch. It's frustrating.

02:30 A few days ago, his account was suspended because he violated community standards.

02:36 I appealed to Facebook. I contacted them, asked for a valid ID,

02:41 and then they took a selfie and everything.

02:43 So it took around three to five days before my personal account was recovered.

02:48 And because cybercriminals target passwords to take over online accounts,

02:53 biometrics is now a way to log in.

02:56 We used multi-factor authentication that employs biometrics like your face

03:01 and another form of dynamic password like one-time pins or those that change passwords.

03:11 Aside from biometrics, according to a technology editor,

03:14 he used a security key. This is a gadget that records fingerprints

03:18 and can be logged in to a laptop or mobile phone.

03:21 It has a fingerprint. You can put your finger in it and you can log in without a password.

03:30 The DICT has a way to prevent cyberattacks in the country.

03:34 We bought some tools. We bought some equipment that has the capability to check TTPs

03:41 or those that are called "how are we being attacked?"

03:44 To avoid being fooled online.

03:46 If you receive information, if you receive investment offers or job offers,

03:54 and even warnings from Facebook that you violated community standards,

04:00 you should immediately question.

04:01 These tools can be used to take over or get a person's social media account.

04:07 It is also good to visit the hotline 1326 of the Interagency Response Center.
