    Always use the proper dialect when talking to your folks!

    So when your fake voice talks to them in formal language, they know immediately that it isn’t you.

    At least for a few more years, and at least in Europe, where dialects are still strong and dialect regions super small, this is a strong protection.

    Yeah but now the voice says hes been picked up by ice and they are sending them off and don’t care about his citizenship or due process.

    My grandfather’s girlfriend almost fell for this six years ago, when they just had someone do a voice. Emotional threats shortcut people’s reasoning.
