Bank Impersonation Fraud
AI
This episode exposes the $12.5 billion bank impersonation crisis. It details how fraudsters exploit the outdated SS7 protocol to spoof caller IDs, making scams nearly indistinguishable from legitimate bank alerts. The script highlights the shift to real-time payment apps and the emergence of AI-cloned voices, which have driven a twenty-fold increase in text-based fraud since 2019. Coverage includes the AI Fraud Deterrence Act and the March 6, 2026, Executive Order targeting transnational criminal networks.
