India Today reported that Tamil Nadu's CB-CID registered a case after cyber-patrol teams found AI-generated videos impersonating Chief Minister Vijay and directing people toward WhatsApp-based financial-help claims. Police said the clips were fake and warned the public not to respond to phone numbers or groups promoted through those videos. TVK Tracker includes this as a cyber-safety and public-information update because political impersonation scams can confuse welfare communication and expose vulnerable users to fraud. The item is not treated as a partisan development or as proof about who created the clips. The next evidence to track is the FIR or case summary, platform takedown records, Meta response, public advisories in Tamil and English, cyber-crime helpline visibility, and whether the government creates a clear verification channel for genuine scheme announcements.
The item has a public implementation signal, but the final outcome still depends on official orders, budgets, court records, department data, or later reporting.
