Entrepreneurs edition
This week: AI reads your receipts, LinkedIn cracks down on fake content, and scammers are getting smarter. Here is how you stay in control.
Fake invoices and fake voices: why you, as a one-person business, are exactly the target
Scammers can now make convincing fake images and fake voices. The one safe rule: always call back on a number you already know.
Experts expect a lot more AI fraud this year. Criminals copy hyper-realistic videos and voices to trick people. Think of a boss asking for an urgent payment, or a "client" who suddenly has a new bank account number. Banks and insurers that use video or voice checks are extra vulnerable. So a short video call is no longer proof that someone is real.
Background for subscribersAgree on one rule with yourself today: I check every "new bank account number" and every urgent payment request with a phone call to the number I already know. Not the number in the email or the app message, but the number from your own records. Do you have staff? Then make this a team rule, because a colleague who pays quickly is your loss too.
Microsoft Copilot now also records in-person meetings
