AI-Generated Fake IDs Pose New Cybersecurity Threat
OnlyFake, a website utilizing artificial intelligence, is creating highly realistic counterfeit IDs, challenging existing online verification systems.
- OnlyFake offers a service producing AI-generated counterfeit IDs, including personal details and manipulated metadata to appear genuine.
- The site claims to produce up to 20,000 documents daily, using 'neural networks' to generate hundreds of fake identities from an Excel table.
- A fake British passport image from OnlyFake successfully passed the identity verification on the cryptocurrency exchange site OKX.
- The service is reportedly available for just $15, making it a significant threat to cybersecurity and the marketplace for fake identities.
- While the use of generative AI tools by OnlyFake has not been independently verified, the potential for widespread identity fraud is alarming.
