AI-driven ‘Truman Show’ trading scam hits app stores

2026-01-12  Per Henrikson

AI-powered ‘Truman Show’ scam uses OPCOPRO app and fake trading rooms in official stores to steal cash and victims’ digital identities. The operation centres on a product branded OPCOPRO and what Check Point calls the "Truman Show Scam". The researchers said the approach differs from conventional financial scams because it relies on sustained social engineering and a controlled online setting rather than malicious code or standalone phishing pages.
