Security researcher Borys Musielak demonstrated the creation of a realistic fake passport using ChatGPT-4o in just five minutes, bypassing automated KYC checks. This highlights vulnerabilities in digital ID verification systems relying solely on photo and selfie matching. The fake passport successfully bypassed basic KYC checks on platforms like Revolut and Binance. Musielak warned of increased risks of identity theft and fraudulent account creation. Following the demonstration, ChatGPT blocked similar prompts. Experts advocate for stronger defenses, such as NFC-based verification and eIDs.
