Realistic public figure impersonation campaigns</h2><p data-block-key="mv04">The rise of accessible deepfake technology has enabled scammers to create sometimes-convincing public figure impersonation campaigns. These schemes often misuse multiple tools — including AI — to generate content that impersonates public figures across platforms with a view to leveraging their credibility and reach. These impersonations often promote fraudulent offerings ranging from high-return investments to fake giveaways and harmful apps. These scams are complex, blending traditional impersonation and investment fraud, while attempting to exploit multiple products as part of a single campaign.</p><p data-block-key="e5bkt">In 2024, we updated our <a href="https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/14599564?hl=en&ref_topic=29265&sjid=2222839774387255107-NC">Misrepresentation Policy</a> to address public figure impersonation scams in Google Ads, and when we find violations of this policy, we suspend Google Ads accounts. YouTube has long-standing <a href="https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/10834785?hl=en">policies</a> prohibiting technically manipulated content that misleads viewers and may pose a serious risk of egregious harm. And, we develop open tools like <a href="https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/watermarking-ai-generated-text-and-video-with-synthid/">SynthID</a> to watermark and identify AI-generated content.</p></div> </div> </div> <section class="text-snippet" data-analytics-module='{ "module_name": "Text Snippet", "section_header": "A new way we’re helping others track frauds and scams online" }'> <div class="text-snippet__container"> <div class="text-snippet__icon"> <svg aria-label="" role="presentation" viewBox="0 0 48 48" > <use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" href="/static/blogv2/images/icons.svg?version=pr20241113-1756#uni-icon-lightbulb"></use> </svg> </div> <p class="text-snippet__text uni-title-1"> Safety Tip: Look out for unnatural expressions in the content you see or strange promotions from public figures.

Crypto investment schemes</h2><p data-block-key="c27fj">Our teams have also seen fraud and scams related to crypto investment schemes with promises of too-good-to-be-true returns. These scams sometimes leverage hyper-realistic impersonation, with videos or images appearing to imply affiliation with a trusted public figure, app or brand. Many of these schemes originate from <a href="https://www.dw.com/en/how-chinese-mafia-are-running-a-scam-factory-in-myanmar/a-68113480">organized crime entities</a> outside the country where victims are based, presenting a challenge for law enforcement.</p><p data-block-key="djq2g">Google has robust <a href="https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/14009787?sjid=7047530132424869853-NA">policies</a> aimed at combating crypto investment scams, and more broadly, protecting users from financial harm.

App and landing page cloning</h2><p data-block-key="jv5q">App and landing page clone scams deceive users by directing them to landing pages that differ from their intended destination but closely resemble the trusted brand’s web page or app. These deceptive pages often mimic the appearance of legitimate websites to trick users into divulging personal information, downloading malware or making fraudulent purchases. Tech support scams are a frequent tactic used by these scammers. Scammers create fake landing pages that closely mimic official customer support sites, tricking users into providing sensitive information or making payments for non-existent services.</p><p data-block-key="abd8h">In recent months, employee and third-party services login portals have become a prime target for scammers. Bad actors create deceptive replicas of legitimate login pages to trick employees into divulging their sensitive credentials — a technique historically used by cyber criminals to gain access to corporate environments. By exploiting the trust employees have in their company's login process, scammers can gain unauthorized access to internal systems, potentially leading to data breaches, financial loss and reputational damage.</p><p data-block-key="4ad35">This behavior violates our social engineering (phishing and deceptive sites) <a href="https://developers.google.com/search/docs/monitor-debug/security/social-engineering">policy</a>.

It’s important to be wary of information from unofficial sources, and look closely for subtle misspellings, strange formatting, unusual fonts or random emojis — these could be red flags for a fake site. Before diving into a website, use Google's "About this result" feature (those three dots next to a search result). It gives valuable insights about the source which can help you see whether it is a legitimate landing page. </p> </div> </section> <div class="module--text module--text__article" data-analytics-module='{ "module_name": "Paragraph", "section_header": "A new way we’re helping others track frauds and scams online" }'> <div class="uni-paragraph article-paragraph" data-component="uni-article-paragraph"> <div class="rich-text"><h2 data-block-key="ialoe">4. Landing page cloaking</h2><p data-block-key="35rl2">Scammers are using deceptive tactics like cloaking to present different content to Google compared to what a user sees. Cloaking is specifically designed to prevent moderation systems and teams from reviewing policy-violating content which enables them to deploy the scam directly to users. The landing pages often mimic well-known sites and create a sense of urgency to manipulate users into purchasing counterfeit products or unrealistic products.</p><p data-block-key="bp3mg">Additionally, we’ve seen a cloaking trend that redirects users via tracking templates. Scammers often use tracking templates to redirect users clicking an ad to scareware sites. The scareware tactics trick the users to believe that their computers are infected with malware or their operating system is blocked due to questionable activity, and lead them to customer support sites ultimately tricking users to provide sensitive information.</p><p data-block-key="ceud4">Google has <a href="https://developers.google.com/search/docs/essentials/spam-policies">dedicated policies</a> prohibiting landing page cloaking and we have <a href="https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/6020954?sjid=13158344318359620687-EU">policies on Ads</a> prohibiting systems which are designed to circumvent our policies.</p></div> </div> </div> <section class="text-snippet" data-analytics-module='{ "module_name": "Text Snippet", "section_header": "A new way we’re helping others track frauds and scams online" }'> <div class="text-snippet__container"> <div class="text-snippet__icon"> <svg aria-label="" role="presentation" viewBox="0 0 48 48" > <use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" href="/static/blogv2/images/icons.svg?version=pr20241113-1756#uni-icon-lightbulb"></use> </svg> </div> <p class="text-snippet__text uni-title-1"> Safety tip: Take note of the URL displayed to you before you click, then double check the landing page you ended up on to be sure it is exactly the same.

By using AI tools, scammers are able to respond quickly to breaking news, making fraudulent appeals seem more credible and timely.</p><p data-block-key="1atmg">Recent examples of this type of scam include the April solar eclipse which triggered a surge in scams, with scammers exploiting the event by promoting deceptive products, including products falsely claiming affiliation with NASA.
