Anthropic uncovers dating app network with 4,700 AI profiles used for fraud

  • 4,700+ AI profiles and 25,000 users over two weeks in April
  • About 2.36 million messages generated by automated agents
  • The network included roughly 28 dating apps, including Dora, Romi, Doni and Kira
  • Only 1 in 4 profiles was human — a hired female worker for verifications
Why it matters: The scheme shows how generative AI scales micro-payment fraud, heightening risks for users of crypto and payment services.
