Diego Guauque reports deepfake using his voice and face to promote an alleged investment platform
Colombian journalist Diego Guauque said on his social media that he was the victim of identity impersonation using artificial intelligence. According to what he showed, the authors of the video altered fragments of an interview he gave to Caracol Televisión, in which he spoke about his cancer diagnosis, to make it appear he endorsed a fraudulent investment platform. In the manipulated version, the clone claimed to have invested 200,000 pesos and obtained returns of up to 9 million in one month. Guauque denied any link to that business and warned about the risk for older people.
