Read our privacy policy Fake humans are conducting job interviews – and could trick the people interviewing them, the FBI has warned. Scammers are using deepfakes and other technology to create false applicants that can undertake job interviews, the agency warned. The fake people are made by stealing the personal information of other people and then creating fake but convincing applicants that can go to job interviews as them, it said.
