Worried about scams? You should be. A new study says banks are struggling to keep up with AI-powered fraud.
Accenture, a consulting firm, talked to 600 banks. The results? Scary.
Eighty percent of the banks said AI helps hackers attack faster. Way faster. Think about that for a second.
Scammers use AI to make scams look real. They grab stolen data and use AI to mimic people. It’s like a super-powered con artist.
Who’s at risk? You, me, and even bank employees. The scams range from fake purchases to empty bank accounts. Yikes!

What’s at risk? Your money. And your trust in banks. Big deal, right?
