  "textContent": "Online fraud has become one of the fastest-growing criminal enterprises on the planet. Deepfake fraud cases are surging, and Deloitte analysts project that generative AI-driven banking fraud alone could climb to roughly as much as _$40 billion_ in the US alone by 2027.\n\nThe problem is not just the volume. It's the architecture. These are no longer opportunistic scams—they are industrialized, AI-assisted operations, and the synthetic media tools that power them are becoming cheaper and more convincing by the month.\n\nA new report on deepfake financial fraud from Data & Society maps this threat. **Justin Hendrix** spoke to its authors, including:\n\n  1. **Alice Marwick** , director of research at Data & Society, and\n  2. **Anya Schiffrin** , co-director of the tech policy and innovation concentration at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs.\n\n\n",
