Two paramount trends are explored: the relentless growth of online scams and the professionalisation of the scam industry. Notably, the conversation highlights the emergence of artificial intelligence, particularly the rise of deepfakes, as a significant tool in the hands of scammers, emphasising the urgency for consumers' protection in the face of rapidly advancing technology.
