00:00A corporate worker cost his company $25 million by following his CEO's exact orders,
00:06but the real CEO never actually spoke a single word. So how did he give the order face-to-face?
00:12It started with a standard email requesting a massive, urgent wire transfer. The worker
00:17immediately hesitated. It looked like a classic scam. But minutes later, his laptop rang with a
00:23live video call. On the screen, his CEO and CFO looked him right in the eye and demanded the
00:28transfer. The interaction looked and sounded completely real. But beneath the surface,
00:33cybercriminals were using real-time AI. They scraped public conference footage to flawlessly
00:38clone the executives' faces and voices on the fly. Completely convinced, the employee processed
00:43the massive payment. The $25 million instantly vanished into a web of untraceable crypto wallets.
00:49By the time the real executives found out, the money was gone forever. It proved a terrifying
00:54new reality. In the modern corporate world, seeing someone on live video is no longer proof of who
00:59they are.
