00:00A woman's life has been turned upside down after loan sharks, or A-long, used artificial
00:07intelligence to create fake nude images of her in an attempt to extort money, despite
00:13her having already repaid the loan with interest.
00:16The victim, a 36-year-old self-employed woman from Selangor, known only as Wong, shared
00:22her ordeal during a press conference on Thursday, alongside MCA Public Services and Complaints
00:27Department, head Datuk Sri Michael Chong and other victims of loan shark harassment.
00:33Wong said she borrowed 15,000 ringgit in February from an individual named Brian to help with
00:40her business, but only received 10,250 ringgit in actual funds.
00:46She later repaid 13,500 ringgit in full, including interest.
00:51However, on April 5th, she began receiving AI-edited nude photos based on her own social media
00:58pictures and even images of her with a friend.
01:01The loan shark demanded an additional 10,000 ringgit and threatened to distribute the fake
01:06images if she refused to comply.
01:09He also threatened to kill her and her family.
01:11They're saying that he will kill my family one by one and let me know how suffering am I.
01:20They don't want the money, they want my life only.
01:22So this makes me very scared that it will be harmful to my friends and family that are not
01:28involved in this case.
01:30Also, my friends that took the picture with me also get involved with those fake naked pictures
01:37that will affect them.
01:39Wang said she lodged a police report that same day, but the threats did not stop.
01:44On June 3rd, she received another message demanding more interest payments.
01:50She also revealed that her photos and information were circulated online, along with false claims
01:56accusing her of fraud.
01:58Chong warned that loan sharks are now resorting to more aggressive and sophisticated tactics,
02:03including the use of AI-generated images to blackmail victims and terrorize their families.
02:09He urged the public to stay alert and report such incidents to the police immediately.
02:14The first thing about the road to see the public are left to see the police in the public,
02:21and this is what I'm looking for, because I think it's already.
02:22The second thing I've got is by telling her.
02:24I don't know if she uses a public suit.
02:26But the first thing I've got is to go to the doctor,
02:27and he's on the general side of the police.
02:30I don't know if she tells her about her.
02:31I don't know if she does it correctly.
02:33I don't know if she says she's like a woman or a woman.
02:34But I'm sure she picks a woman or a woman or she says,
02:35but the second thing she doesn't stop her.
02:37And this is a woman or she doesn't stop her.
