It's not at all clear that what you're saying is true now: They thought loved ones were calling for help. It was an AI scam.
And it's a nailed-on guarantee that it won't remain true for very long at all.
This is the kind of thing that AI actually is good at. Hollywood will use it to make out like bandits and so will criminals.
There's a lot of hyped-up scaremongering about AI but this particular cat is out of this particular bag.
