Cristiano Ronaldo: a woman scammed after believing she spoke to the footballer in an AI video

A woman from Patras, Greece, lost 100 euros after believing she was video chatting with Cristiano Ronaldo, whose image was generated by artificial intelligence. The scammer, posing as the footballer, offered her financial assistance in exchange for a payment to 'legalize' the operation. After making two transfers of 50 euros via the IRIS service, the victim realized she had been scammed when her interlocutor stopped responding.
