Dutch police arrest two suspects in bank fraud that allegedly used AI-generated calls
Rotterdam police arrested two suspects in a bank-helpdesk fraud that allegedly caused around €380,000 in losses for 170 victims in just three weeks. The suspects allegedly used AI-generated phone calls and a fake banking app to copy victims' bank cards remotely, allowing accomplices to withdraw thousands of euros. A Rotterdam court ruled on Tuesday that both men must remain in custody for at least another 90 days.
