OverviewYou're not imagining it - reality is harder to trust. Across the internet, you're surrounded by perfect forgeries: cloned voices, synthetic faces, bot-driven outrage, and AI-tailored illusions designed to hijack your attention and bend your beliefs. And most people never see the strings being pulled. The Digital Con reveals the machinery behind that manipulation. In this gripping and unsettling exploration, David James shows how modern scams no longer look like Nigerian princes or clumsy phishing emails. They've evolved. Today's deception is woven into your newsfeed, your notifications, your search results, and even the faces and voices of people you think you know. Through vivid stories and sharp analysis, you'll learn: How AI-generated voices and deepfakes are weaponized to bypass your senses How bot networks and fake news farms create the illusion of public consensus How platforms amplify outrage and misinformation faster than truth can catch up How conspiracy groups become recruitment pools for scammers and political manipulators How ""reality"" itself is fractured when seeing is no longer believing And most importantly: how to defend yourself in a world where digital illusions feel real Moving from the early misinformation machines to today's AI-accelerated deception ecosystem, James exposes the psychological tricks, technological tools, and economic incentives driving a new era of digital exploitation. The result is a clear, compelling survival guide for anyone trying to stay grounded while the internet bends around them. If The Big Con showed why we still fall for scams, The Digital Con shows why the next generation of scams won't need your permission to fool you.
