Docomo Pacific CEO Reports Mother Targeted by Purported AI-Enabled Scam in Guam

Docomo Pacific's CEO, Christine Baleto, disclosed that her elderly mother was targeted by an alleged AI-enabled scam call on Guam. The scammer reportedly posed as a federal agent and used personal details and intimidation, demanding sensitive information under false pretenses. The company's advisory suggests AI voice cloning may have been involved, warning that such technology can convincingly mimic family members' voices, increasing risk for seniors on the island.
