A 53-year-old French woman has reportedly lost $850,000 to scammers who posed as an AI-generated version of Hollywood star Brad Pitt. The scam unfolded as the woman believed she was in a romantic relationship with the impersonator, who convinced her to send substantial sums of money under the pretense of needing help with hospital bills. Following her investment, she divorced her husband, further complicating her situation. The case has drawn significant media attention and online mockery, leading to widespread cyberbullying directed at the victim. Representatives for the real Brad Pitt have issued warnings to fans, emphasizing that he is not soliciting money from anyone online.
