The Explosive Growth of AI-Powered Fraud: A Global Challenge


Recent data reveals a staggering increase in AI-powered fraud, particularly deepfake-specific fraud cases, which have surged dramatically from 2022 to 2023. The statistics from the Sumsub Identity Fraud Report 2023, showcased by Statista, underline a significant rise in such fraudulent activities across the globe.


Highlights from the report include:
- The United States noted 3,000 cases, leading in North America.
- Belgium experienced a 2,950% increase, the highest in Europe.
- The Philippines reported the largest jump in Asia with 4,500 cases.
- Brazil saw 828 cases, marking the situation in South America.

These numbers, derived from over 2 million cases of identity fraud attempts from 224 countries/territories, raise concerns over the growing sophistication of fraud techniques. The data underscores the urgent need for robust verification systems and awareness about digital identity safety.
