- Ferrari Executive Targeted by AI Deepfake Scam Impersonating CEO Benedetto Vigna
event | 20 July 2025 | 82%
A Ferrari executive was targeted by an AI-generated deepfake impersonating CEO Benedetto Vigna in an alleged fraud attempt. The scammer, using WhatsApp and a cloned voice, claimed an urgent, secretive financial deal required immediate action. The executive became suspicious after detecting slight artificial intonations; the scam failed when the executive tested the caller by asking about a recent book recommendation.
