In 2025, cybercrime resulted in $21 billion being stolen from over 1 million Americans, with $11 billion coming from stolen cryptocurrency, $8.6 billion from investment scams, and $893 million from AI-related attacks. The FBI reported that scammers are increasingly using AI to perpetrate crimes, such as creating deepfake videos and fake social profiles. The agency also noted that most losses were due to investment scams, followed by business email compromise and tech/customer support scams. Despite efforts like the Recovery Asset Team freezing over $678 million in stolen funds, scammers continue to exploit technological advancements, making it challenging to combat these crimes.
