AI does not create the scam from nothing. It makes old scams look more believable.

AARP’s 2026 coverage explains that criminals now use AI to create:

  • cloned voices
  • deepfake video
  • realistic fake images
  • polished fake messages and websites

That means the old advice “look for bad grammar” is no longer enough.

Founder note: Corey built Lumoset because the danger is not just new technology. It is old manipulation with stronger costumes.

What to do:

  • Stop expecting scams to look sloppy.
  • Shift from “Can I spot the flaw?” to “Can I verify this independently?”
