Rosario Dawson and other Hollywood stars warn Americans not to be duped by AI -generated deepfakes designed to mislead them about when, where and how to vote on Election Day .

"If something seems off, it probably is,” Dawson warns in the video spot.

The celebrities say Americans should rely on state secretaries of state for information about voting in the 2024 election.

In the 2020 election, U.S. authorities accused Iran of sending emails to Democratic voters in multiple battleground states aimed at intimidating them into voting for then-President Donald Trump .

The emails falsely claimed to be from the far-right group Proud Boys and warned recipients that “we will come after you” if they didn’t vote for Trump .

It's unclear to what degree it had any effect.
