Rafael Nadal has numerous fans all over the world. But now the tennis star has fallen victim to fraud.

Rafael Nadal has been the victim of abuse of identity on the Internet. The former tennis star warned of a fraud stitch on social media in which artificial intelligence is used.

Together with his team, the Spaniard found “that falsified videos are circulating on some platforms that were created with artificial intelligence and in which a figure appears that imitates my appearance and voice,” said Nadal in a explanation on social media.

Nadal said that advice or investment tips were attributed to him in the recordings, “who do not come from me”. It was “misleading advertising,” emphasized the 22-time Grand Slam winner, who ended his career last year. He asked his followers for increased caution.
