Jennifer Stefano from the US received a call with her daughter's crying voice about being kidnapped. The girl was on vacation, so the excitement of the mother can be understood. According to her, after her daughter, a man came up to the phone and demanded a $1 million ransom. As a result of negotiations, the amount decreased to 50 thousand. Fortunately, in parallel, Jennifer tried to contact her daughter and she confirmed that everything was fine with her - it turned out that the attackers simply recreated her voice with the help of AI in order to try to make money on her parents.
