In a matter of grave concern, veteran
industrialist and former Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata issued an alert regarding
deepfake video where his name has been misused on social media to “exaggerate
investment” with risk-free and 100 per cent guarantee.
In a post on Instagram, Tata called out
a post from a user by the name of Sona Agrawal that used a fake interview of
him in a video recommending investments.
In the fake video, Tata addresses Sona
Agrawal as his manager.
“A recommendation from Ratan Tata for
everyone in Bharat. This is your chance to exaggerate your investment right
today risk free with 100 per cent guarantee. Go to the channel right now,” read
the caption of the video post.
The video also showed messages of people
receiving money in their account. Tata wrote FAKE on the video and also on the
screenshot of the caption of the video.
