Scammers use shock calls to rip off their unsuspecting victims. Artificial intelligence is now being used as the latest scam.

Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) warns of an increase in cases of the scam. It is best not to get involved in the conversation in the first place, the experts advise. In the event of a fraudulent call, those affected should report to the local police station – and report the incident.. Scammers usually pretend to be relatives or police officers on the phone.
