There ARE ways to easily tell if a FaceTime video is fake or real.
Ask the person on video to turn sideways. Fake video images are good from front view, but often horrible at handling side view.
Ask the person to put one of their fingers in their mouth. Dead giveaway. AI images are really bad about having fingers disappear into a face, or having depth to a mouth.
Ask the person to run their fingers of one hand through their hair. AI can't really handle individual strands of hair being either in front of or behind the moving fingers while the hair is moving as well.
If you suspect a fake, then make the other person prove it's not. On the other hand, if the FaceTime is REALLY the president of your company... and you just asked him to turn sideways and put his finger in his mouth...
the problem is that these make scam calls much more convincing and the type of people fooled by these scams arnt the type of people to be asking someone to stick their ginger in the mouth in an emergency to prove they are real
one of the common scam calls for elderly is pretending to be a relative in trouble and needing to be sent money, imagine how much more convincing that is with a video call
