Voice hackers can record your voice then use morpher to trick authentication systems

It's easy for someone with potentially malicious intentions to record your voice, as you leave traces of your voice when simply talking somewhere out in public, during mobile phone calls, in videos posted on social networking sites, or even when sending a recorded voice greeting card. Your voice is considered to be unique enough to serve as an authentication of your identity.

But after studying the implications of commonplace voice leakage and developing voice impersonation attacks, researchers from the University of Alabama at Birmingham warned that an attacker, in possession of only a very limited number of your voice samples, with "just a few minutes worth of audio of a victim's voice," can clone your voice and could compromise your security, safety, and privacy.

So now, whenever I talk to the bank, I have to do a falsetto?!

Well they couldn't resist exploiting this one could they... Im just surprised it hasn't happened a lot sooner. It's not news that there's plenty of ways to obfuscate your voice digitally, and employing those measures over the like of a phone shouldn't be that hard, but recording your voice in public! that's just despicable.
