PANews reported on February 18 that according to CoinDesk, data analysis company Inca Digital found that a scammer who used AI deep fake videos was defrauding companies through fake FTX liquidation claims, involving more than $5.6 million. The scammer disguised his identity and made video calls with companies that bought FTX liquidation claims, successfully defrauding a large amount of money. The scammer may have used face-changing technology in the video call and forged relevant documents.

The investigation showed that these fake claims data were considered valid by buyers despite not being connected to actual creditors. The fraudulent funds were quickly laundered through non-US exchanges such as Binance, and it is unclear whether federal law enforcement agencies are tracking the relevant data. Inca Digital's report pointed out that this type of fraud may involve more victims and may affect the upcoming FTX liquidation payments.
