Zoom Scam With Faces

An interesting variant on fraudulent deepfake scams.

Kenny Li of Manta fame was sucked into a scam attempt, but was able to perceive the scam before any damage was done.

Li responded to a message from a known contact, which resulted in a Telegram conversation, which resulted in a Zoom call.

“In the call, there were team members who had their cameras on, and [the] Manta founder could see their faces. He mentioned that “Everything looked very real. But I couldn’t hear them.” Then came the “Zoom update required” prompt…”

Li didn’t fall for it.
