Google Fights Impersonation Scams With Fake-Call Tech

Google is rolling out a new feature within its Phone app to combat impersonation fraud. This technology leverages AI and deepfake detection to identify calls made using spoofed numbers. The feature is designed to protect users by alerting them to potentially fraudulent calls before they are answered. For this protection to be effective, both the caller and the recipient must be using the Google Phone application, ensuring a secure communication channel. This initiative highlights Google's ongoing efforts to enhance user security and privacy in the face of evolving digital threats.
