Workers using AI to scam their employers with phony expense receipts: report recently highlighted an issue where employees are making fake AI generated expensive receipts and are claiming reimbursement. So how does this work

1) Employee goes to gemini, midjourney or any other top image generating models
2) Type a prompt to make a fake AI generated expensive receipt from a nearby restaurant to the employee
3) Reiterate until the image model makes it seem almost genuine
4) Submit for reimbursement for the same to the business

According to software provider AppZen told Fox, for instance, that these fake AI receipts accounted for roughly 14% of all fraudulent documents submitted last month. Zero were submitted last year, the company said.

So how could we protect ourselves here

1) Solution is to just stop the reimbursement scheme until we get a proper solution, but this decreases employee morale
2) Is to check whether the image is ai generated or not by using ai image recognition tools like Content Moderation and Image Analysis, Decopy AI: Your All-in-One Writing Solution etc
3) Is to ask the employee to mail the receipts physically to your location which again is not perfect as ai images are being harder to detect
4) Another way is using a tool called , which while building caught my attention to this article.

This ai issue is becoming real threat to honest businesses who value a positive environment, it almost like we can't trust anything anymore until we crosscheck. giving 1987-george orwell vibes
