NewsTranscript
00:00Almost 170 people were arrested in a scam hub in Makati City.
00:05They are using artificial intelligence or AI to victimize people.
00:11Witness, John Consulta.
00:17Step back, step back.
00:19He's not using his phone.
00:21He's not holding a computer.
00:24The NBI-NCR has not yet visited a normal office in Makati City.
00:30The scripts used in the scam have been tampered with.
00:33There are cellphones that exchange messages through a program.
00:38It is said that they are using sim cards that are not registered.
00:41We are looking into the violation of the Anti-Financial Account Scamming Act and of course the Cybercrime Act.
00:51One of the NBI's targets is a scam hub that is using artificial intelligence or AI.
00:59The computer and the camera are only scanning the faces of the recruited scammers.
01:06The result is that they are using AI to generate the face of a woman
01:11who is being used by the syndicates to make video calls to foreigners to victimize them.
01:21Earlier, I faced it.
01:23Even my face was changed to AI.
01:29It's real-time.
01:31It's real-time.
01:32They are going to change it.
01:34They are going to juke into believing that they are real.
01:38167 Filipinos and 2 Chinese were involved in the Love Scam activities.
01:45Most of the victims are foreigners based in Europe and the Middle East.
01:50According to our sources, their group has been operating for 3 years and their quota is 3 foreigners per day.
01:58We will get the trust and the relationship of the customer.
02:01When we build the trust and the relationship, that's when the so-called investments come in.
02:08To be honest, there are a lot of people here.
02:11They can't give us a normal job.
02:13When it comes to the consensus, there is nothing.
02:16We are only thinking about money.
02:18The NBI is reminding the syndicates not to use the scam hub.
02:23They should not be fooled by the promise of big money.
02:26They will be in danger.
02:29The Love Scam is included in the reports of the CICC or Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center.
02:35According to the CICC, they received more than 10,000 cybercrime complaints in 2024.
02:42This is three times bigger than the complaints they received in 2023.
02:48The victims lost almost Php200 million.
