Facebook blocks over 10 bogus ChatGPT apps that attempt to deceive consumers

Facebook, the parent company of social networking giant Meta, has reportedly disabled more than 10 fake ChatGPT apps that were made to deceive consumers.

The company has discovered that scammers are luring consumers into downloading harmful software and browser add-ons by appealing to their interest in ChatGPT, an AI-based language model. 

Once a person installs the malicious software, the attackers are free to continue creating innovative methods of evading security safeguards.

To address this problem, Meta has found and blocked over 1,000 different malicious URLs on their apps.
