FTX News: SBF's Viral Deepfake Lures Customers For Refund

On Friday, SBF, the founder of the now-defunct FTX exchange, went viral on Twitter due to a deepfake video. In the deepfake, Sam Bankman-Fried appeared to promise the victims of FTX, to make all of them whole again by doubling their money through a typical giveaway scam. The account through which this fraud was being propagated, was Twitter verified and the exact impersonation of SBF’s personal account made things even more worse.
