Fake ChatGPT applies scams and steals passwords from social networks

O ChatGPT, artificial intelligence by OpenAI, gained visibility in the last months of 2022 and became popularly known around the world. In contrast to the success, cybercriminals make use of a “front” of the platform to apply blows to social network accounts. The alert was issued by a US company.

ChatGPT does not apply blows

A Kaspersky report reported that there is a group applying blows impersonating artificial intelligence. The virus is shared with the ability to invade peers and gain access to social networks. In order to share the fraud more easily, criminals make use of ChatGPT information to deceive people.

They publish links pretending to be ChatGPT so that the person can download the program. When the user clicks on the link, downloading the alleged platform, a virus enters the cell phone and has access to all social media passwords, such as Google, Facebook and TikTok.

Darya Ivanova, a security specialist at Kaspersky, said that the popularity of ChatGPT is a great opportunity for social media scammers to use techniques to gain the trust of the target audience of the Internet. The expert also points out that it is necessary to evaluate the message if it has been received.

What to do to not fall for these scams?

To be attentive to coup and not fall into traps, the user needs to pay attention and evaluate the origin of that link. Not only this, but other dubious links shared that are of dubious origin need to be questioned.

In cases of doubt, do not click on the link and delete the conversation if it is via SMS. If using a social network, it is best not to click on the link, report the account from which the link was shared and then block the criminal account.

ChatGPT is only available on the official artificial intelligence tool, and the scams are not applied by the company.
