The call sounds exactly like your daughter, crying down the phone. The voice on the line is your bank's fraud team. The face on the video call is your manager, asking for an urgent favour. But is it really them?

Artificial intelligence has handed criminals a frightening new toolkit. With a few seconds of audio taken from a voicemail or a social media clip, a scammer can now clone a loved one's voice. With a single photo, they can build a convincing video. The old warning signs we were all taught - listen for a foreign accent, watch for clumsy spelling, be suspicious of a bad line - simply do not work any more. The fakes are now fluent, polished and personal.

Is It Really Them? is a calm, practical UK guide for ordinary families who feel out of their depth. Written in plain English, with no jargon and no scaremongering, it explains exactly how today's AI-powered scams really work - voice cloning, deepfake video, hi mum messages, romance fraud, fake bank and courier calls, HMRC and police impersonation, and investment cons - and then gives you simple, repeatable habits that stop them in their tracks.

You do not need to understand the technology to be safe from it. You need a plan, a few good habits, and the confidence to put the phone down. This book gives you all three.
