argument: Notizie/News - Criminal Law

According to an article from Yahoo News, the FCC has identified its first AI-powered scam group, Royal Tiger, which uses AI voice cloning to conduct robocall scams. The group, led by Prince Jashvantlal Anand and Kaushal Bhavsar, operates internationally from countries including the USA, India, and the UK. This scam technique involves impersonating government agencies and financial institutions to extract sensitive information from victims. The FCC is taking action by sending cease-and-desist letters and classifying Royal Tiger as a Consumer Communications Information Services Threat to curb their operations and protect consumer trust.
