It's a sophisticated scam you may have never heard of -- using AI technology to try and fraudulently sell property -- but it almost happened recently in Hallandale Beach.
A would-be scammer used a missing woman's photo to create an AI video image and used it to appear on a Zoom call with a title company.
That AI woman was claiming to be the owner and seller of a vacant property in Hallandale Beach.
The call was set up by Florida Title and Trust to verify "Margaret McCartney" was actually a real person.
"It shocked me to see a video that was clearly not a person," said Lauren Albrecht, President of Florida Title and Trust.
