Hong Kong authorities have initiated an inquiry following allegations made by an employee at an undisclosed corporation, who asserted that she fell victim to a sophisticated scam involving a deepfake video conference call, resulting in the transfer of HK$200 million (£20 million) from her company's funds to fraudsters.
The Hong Kong Police Force confirmed receiving a report from the said employee, stating that she was misled into executing the transfer by individuals impersonating high-ranking company officials.
