@realBigBrainAI This is more her problem than anything else. Nobody in their right mind would believe such bs

Scammers used AI to steal $850,000 from a woman by pretending to be Brad Pitt.
But they didn't just take her money. They took her marriage, her sanity, and almost her life...
In February 2023, a 53-year-old French woman named Anne downloaded Instagram to share photos of her ski trip. Days later, she received a message from Brad Pitt's "mother":
"My son needs a woman like you."
Within 24 hours, "Brad Pitt" himself took over messaging Anne.
For months, he sent love declarations, romantic poems, and AI-generated photos personally addressed to "Anne."
Then came the financial requests ↓
"Brad" claimed he had kidney disease but couldn't access his money due to a bitter divorce battle with Angelina. The story matched real headlines Anne could verify.
She sent €9,000 for "customs charges." Then more for medical bills and hospital fees.
By the end: €830,000 (~$850,000) gone.
Every time Anne doubted, new AI-generated "proof" appeared:
Selfies with her name, emails from his "doctor," hospital photos.
When photos of Brad Pitt with Ines de Ramon went public, the scammers created a fake news broadcast. An AI-generated anchor announced Pitt's "exclusive relationship with one special individual... who goes by the name of Anne."
Anne believed it.
Then a Special FBI Agent John Smith contacted her, claiming to investigate the fraud and demanded more money through the same methods.
That's when Anne finally saw the truth.
She'd lost $850,000, her marriage, and she was hospitalized for severe depression after multiple suicide attempts.
Anne's story reveals a terrifying truth:
AI now gives fraudsters the power to construct entire false realities tailored to one person's doubts and fears.
This is what deception looks like now, and the tools are only getting more powerful.
