๐Ÿ‘‰Barry Goode from Tiny, Ontario, paid over $7,700 for a luxury villa in Costa Rica listed on Booking.com, only to find out it was a fake listing. Despite appearing legitimate with good reviews, Goode was directed to communicate via WhatsApp for payment. After wiring the funds, the listing changed, and Goode couldn't get any information about the villa. When he complained to Booking.com, he was offered $500 in compensation, which he refused. Travel experts warn against making payments outside of official platforms, as it removes protections.โœ… . ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐ž๐ฒ ๐ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐Š๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐†๐“๐€ ๐‘๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐Ÿ (๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•) ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‘-๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ๐Ÿ” ๐„๐ฆ๐š๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ค๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ@๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐œ๐š๐ง๐š๐๐ข๐š๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @kamalpillai_realtor . . #ScamAlert #BookingDotCom #FakeListing #TravelScam #OntarioMan #CostaRica #OnlineBooking #TravelWarning #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

๐Ÿ‘‰A Toronto resident, Stephen Henry, lost $12,000 to a deepfake cryptocurrency scam involving a video purportedly showing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau endorsing a trading platform. Manipulated by AI and voice cloning, the video falsely portrayed Trudeau endorsing the investment. Henry, deceived by the apparent legitimacy, invested but was unable to withdraw his funds, ultimately losing his savings. The Prime Ministerโ€™s Office expressed concern over the proliferation of fake content targeting officials. With advancements in AI, cybersecurity experts emphasize the need for public education to recognize and mitigate such risks.โœ… . ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐ž๐ฒ ๐ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐Š๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐†๐“๐€ ๐‘๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐Ÿ (๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•) ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‘-๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ๐Ÿ” ๐„๐ฆ๐š๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ค๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ@๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐œ๐š๐ง๐š๐๐ข๐š๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @kamalpillai_realtor . . #DeepfakeScam #JustinTrudeau #CryptocurrencyFraud #AIManipulation #CybersecurityAwareness #ScamAlert #OnlineSafety #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

๐Ÿ‘‰Winnipeg retiree Peter Squire is grappling with the shock of losing over $600,000 in retirement savings to an alleged wire-transfer fraud. Squire received an unexpected call from someone claiming to be a senior investment portfolio manager at a major Canadian bank, BMO. The Manitoba Securities Commission is investigating the case as "brand hijacking," where criminals pose as reputable financial institutions. Squire, thinking he was investing in a legitimate Canada Savings Bond, made two wire transfers in November 2022. He urges others to be cautious, emphasizing how scammers exploit individuals, especially seniors, through deceptive schemes.โœ… .
