Arup revealed as victim of $25 million deepfake scam involving Hong Kong employee | CNN Business
A British multinational design and engineering company behind world-famous buildings such as the Sydney Opera House has confirmed that it was the target of a deepfake scam that led to one of its Hong Kong employees paying out $25 million to fraudsters. A spokesperson for London-based Arup told CNN on Friday that it notified Hong Kong police in January about the fraud incident, and confirmed that fake voices and images were used. “Unfortunately, we can’t go into details at this stage as the incident is still the subject of an ongoing investigation. However, we can confirm that fake voices and images were used,” the spokesperson said in an emailed statement.

Réunion en ligne avec un faux chef (technique de deep fake) : fraude au CEO 2.0
09.04.2024 - Le service financier d’une entreprise reçoit de son patron une demande de paiement soi-disant urgente. Le CEO explique que si le responsable financier n’effectue pas le paiement dans les plus brefs délais, cela aura de graves conséquences pour l’entreprise, car une commande importante sera perdue. Ensuite, le chef n’est étrangement plus joignable pour répondre à d’autres questions. Tel est le scénario typique d’une fraude au CEO. La plupart du temps, ces attaques ne sont pas très sophistiquées et sont faciles à détecter. L’intelligence artificielle et le deep fake ne s’arrêtent toutefois pas à cette méthode d’escroquerie plutôt simple, comme le montre un exemple récent signalé à l’OFCS.
