The National Bank of Romania (BNR) warns that, recently, deepfake images have been posted on several social networks in which the image and voice of Governor Mugur Isarescu are used. “Recently, on several platforms and social networks, there have been deepfake posts involving the governor of the National Bank of Romania, Mugur Isarescu.
