Demonstrates that convincing voice clones can be made from tiny samples — down to five seconds of audio — using tools like Lyrebird and Tacotron (Adobe’s VoCo and Google Duplex also shown). A proof‑of‑concept voice note fools a father and a 25‑year friend; a recorded industry incident let attackers authorize a $243,000 transfer. Attack flow uses spectrogram-based synthesis, virtual audio cables and Skype calls; background noise increases believability. Recommendation: opt out of voice‑only auth and use multi‑factor.
