The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) has warned about deepfake videos of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, and chief ministers being used in fake Facebook and Instagram ads. These videos falsely promise government welfare benefits, cashbacks, or rewards, leading victims to fraudulent websites and repeated payment demands. Many scams involve international callers, often from Pakistan, pressuring victims for fees and causing significant financial losses.
