In today's increasingly sophisticated digital technology era, it is very possible that there will be negative impacts on anyone. Many users of digital technology are not aware of this. Therefore, cybersecurity experts urge the public to increase digital literacy. One way is not to easily believe in fake transfer receipts. Transfer receipts are very easy to manipulate using technology such as image editing or artificial intelligence AI. This process can be done with image editing skills, photoshop, or GPT chat. Even with Chrome alone, you can make fake transfers.

Actually, fake transfer crimes are nothing new in the modern digital world. However, at this time this form of manipulation is increasingly difficult to recognize because of the help of cutting-edge technology based on artificial intelligence (AI). The use of technological intelligence is not a problem, but the intention of its misuse needs to be watched out for. This can be seen from the many people who only rely on the appearance of transfer receipts so that they have the potential to become victims of fraud. All digital displays can be engineered, even by lay people. Low digital literacy is the main factor in the vulnerability of society to fraudulent modes carried out by irresponsible people.

For urban communities, they may be accustomed to the sophistication of digital technology. However, people in rural areas are often not aware of fraud because they are not yet accustomed to mobile banking services. Therefore, people who receive transfers must always check their accounts first, if they have entered, then believe them. If there is still a pending status in the account mutation, the transaction should not be considered valid. Pending in the mutation indicates that the funds have not been fully received, and the transaction may be canceled by the system. To anticipate various worst possibilities, people should always verify the mutation directly through their personal account or contact the bank.

The best way to ensure the authenticity of a transfer is to check the mutation via mobile banking or through a bank. In the era of digital technology like today, maintaining digital credentials such as personal data and financial access is very important. We must protect digital credentials well and do not be easily fooled or give them to others. If everyone is smart and always careful, of course irresponsible parties will not be able to do anything. Thus a brief information and hopefully it can be useful for all Steemit friends.
