AI-voiced bank calls led Dutch victims to tap cards to phones
Dutch police say recorded calls posing as banks reached 170 victims, who were told to install an app and hold their card to their phone. According to The Daily Hodl, about €380,000 was taken in three weeks. A caller claiming to be your bank asks you to download an app or hold your card against your phone. Hang up and call your bank back on a number you look up yourself. QuietGuard keeps calls from people you haven't named as trusted quiet, but it can't judge a call from someone on your list, so hanging up and checking with your bank still matters.
