Taylor Swift has been named the world's 'most dangerous celebrity' by cybersecurity company McAfee after researchers found that her image is now the most exploited by scammers, creating AI-generated deepfakes.
The rise of realistic synthetic videos and voice clips has made it easier for criminals to impersonate well-known figures, particularly those with large global fandoms. According to McAfee, this surge in digital deception is leaving fans vulnerable to scams that trick them into handing over personal data, banking information, or direct payments.
