There are different types of blackmailers targeting victims on LinkedIn.
What the predator does first is connect with a business professional and quietly extract information from their profile and business connections.
Sometimes the victim never does anything wrong.
They never send compromising photos.
They never exchange intimate messages.
Instead, the blackmailer manufactures the evidence with AI.
I have seen fake text message conversations where a business professional supposedly solicited a woman they had never spoken to.
I have seen AI-generated screenshots accusing victims of making racist comments, sexual propositions, and other horrible statements they never made.
Then comes the demand.
Pay, or the fake screenshots will be sent to your employer, coworkers, clients, and LinkedIn connections.
What makes this scam so dangerous is that people do not always stop to question whether the screenshots are real.
Many assume they are.
That makes AI-generated blackmail a powerful weapon.
One client, a partner at a global law firm, had to contact the Bar Association and explain that he was the victim of targeted extortion involving fabricated evidence.
His greatest fear was not the blackmailer.
It was that people would believe the fake screenshots.
