Deepfake-assisted bank video verification preceded trusted-number replacement
KZ-CERT documented a May 2024 fraud sequence in which facial video captured during a messenger call was reused with DeepFake technology during bank video verification, followed by replacement of the trusted phone number and subsequent account access. The advisory does not identify the affected bank or establish that every bank or present-day implementation remains vulnerable to the same technique.

CLM-KZCERT-RECOVERY-PIVOTThe reported sequence illustrates a high-impact recovery pivot: when successful video verification can authorize replacement of a trusted phone number, defeating that verification step can enable subsequent authentication through the newly trusted number.supported
Basis: inference
Scope: Inference from the specific KZ-CERT sequence; it is not evidence that every bank, every recovery flow or a current deepfake-aware implementation exposes the same transition.
