Adriana's mother was deceived by artificial intelligence scammers
An unexpected and worrying incident occurred involving Adriano, the former star of the Brazilian national team and Inter club. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This time, it was not an opponent on the field, but scammers using modern technology who attacked the footballer's family. The scammers used artificial intelligence to fake Adriano's voice and appearance, deceiving his mother.
They convinced the footballer's mother to transfer 15,000 reais (approximately 2,400 euros). They did not use threats or pressure, but instead exploited trust to manipulate the family's emotions.
This incident was very difficult for Adriano. He made a statement on social media, issuing a strong warning to the scammer.
"It's good that this fool returned the money. I will find you!
Mothers, grandmothers, and family members, do not touch them," he said. From Adriano's words, it is clear that this is not about money, but about family and mother.
He admitted to being emotional and later explained the situation more calmly, urging people to be vigilant. "Today my mother was deceived, tomorrow it could be your family.
Be careful," he said. This incident demonstrated a new form of fraud carried out using artificial intelligence.
Previously, people might not have recognized a voice over the phone, but now it is possible to convincingly fake both voice and appearance. This seems especially credible to elderly people.
Adriano's mother reported the incident to the police. Experts are calling on everyone to be alert to such scams.
The conclusion is that this is not a problem only for celebrities. If artificial intelligence has become a dangerous tool in the hands of scammers, every family can be at risk.
Therefore, it is important to agree with your loved ones in advance: if someone urgently asks for money, always call back, confirm through another channel, and do not get carried away by emotions. Technologies are developing rapidly, but our vigilance must be even faster.
