Can an AI clone your financial identity without losing your physical wallet?

Traditional identity thieves had to physically steal your cards or phish for your password to drain your bank account. How do you protect your credit score when generative AI can mix a leaked snippet of your real data with a fake name to build an entirely new “synthetic identity” that racks up massive debt in the background? It means your financial health can be completely ruined by a digital ghost before you or your bank even realize a breach has occurred.

This adjusts the flow so it clearly highlights the core personal finance dilemma right in the middle of the description.
