⛔️ OpenAI Bans Accounts Linked to Cambodia Scam Network

OpenAI has disrupted a Cambodia-based criminal network that used ChatGPT to support investment fraud, romance scams, gambling schemes, and fake law enforcement messages. The company reported the operation on July 31, saying it targeted people in several countries, including India.

The investigation began after a tip from WhatsApp. OpenAI then banned a coordinated group of accounts believed to be operating from Poipet, in Banteay Meanchey province. The city has often been linked to online scam compounds and human trafficking.
