⚠️ A familiar face. A convincing voice. A promise to double your Fuliza limit. It could all be a scam.

Fraudsters are using AI deepfakes and fake websites to steal from unsuspecting customers.

🛑 STOP. 🤔 THINK. ✅ VERIFY.

Before you click, pay or share personal details, verify the offer through official Safaricom channels. Spotted a suspicious ad? Don’t engage or forward it. Report it and warn others!

Your money. Your safety. Your responsibility to verify.

Real example of a deepfake ad: a familiar face, official-looking logos and a “Learn more” button. All fake. Know the signs #JiulizeKamaNiUkweli

[TechMoran @TechMoran]

The supposedly CEO in that ad you are seeing isn't real but AI.
Before you trust it, check to see if the lips match the words, does the voice sound flat or robotic and if the offer is too good to be true #JiulizeKamaNiUkweli
