00:01Your latest selfie could be giving hackers everything they need to crack your accounts?
00:07Experts have warned.
00:10Cybersecurity researchers have issued an urgent warning against doing a peace sign in photos amid fears that criminals could steal
00:19your fingerprints.
00:20Oh, lordy.
00:25I don't know.
00:27Using AI tools like Daily Mail, using AI to write their stories.
00:32Criminals, they were like the first to do that, I mean, before anyone else.
00:36As fingerprint logins become more common for our most secure accounts, experts say the trend could be helping hackers access
00:45everything from emails to banking apps.
00:49And criminals may have the ability to isolate your biometric data from a single photo and use it to access
00:56your accounts.
00:57I don't know.
00:58The warning comes as a Chinese security expert, Li Chang, demonstrated how she could steal a celebrity's fingerprints using social
01:09media posts.
01:11Oh, you're telling me the resolution is that good to be able to zoom in and copy the ridges of
01:19your fingerprints?
01:20Wait, we've got a 15-point match.
01:26That sounds like CSI stuff right there.
01:29All right, so I'm watching a new show on Netflix.
01:33Yeah, what's this one called?
01:34It's called Unfamiliar, and it's like a German cloak and dagger type.
01:39Yeah.
01:39Uh-huh.
01:40I'm still feeling it out.
01:41Right.
01:41I'm in the second episode.
01:43Okay.
01:43But a guy lifts a fingerprint off of a glass, and then he holds it up to a webcam to
01:51other people, like at another location.
01:53Right.
01:54And the webcam takes the image, and then, you know, because he has it on, like, a card, and he
01:58holds it up to the cam, and it pixelates it.
02:01And then all the pictures of, like, possible matches come scrolling through.
02:05And then, like, in, like, 30 seconds, it's like, we have a match.
02:10So, I just saw a show where it's, like, fingerprints over TV monitors.
02:15Right.
02:15So.
02:16So maybe it's true.
02:17It has to be real.
02:18If it's, like, in Netflix.
