Scams are often styled like legitimate news interviews
The Isle of Man Constabulary says it is aware that criminals are using deepfake videos to impersonate public figures, including the chief minister, in fake investment ads.
The scams are often styled like legitimate news interviews and claim huge returns to trick people out of their money.
It says the Cyber Security Centre for the Isle of Man is working with platforms to remove these fakes, but public awareness is key.
Over £1.2 million was lost to investment scams on the Isle of Man in 2024 alone.
