Abstract: Artificial intelligence has made it possible to generate highly realistic images, which can be mis used for misinformation, fraud and identity theft. Detecting such AI- generated images manually is difficult and time consuming. Detecting such AI-generated images has become very important to maintain the authenticity of digital content. This paper presents an AI Image Fraud Detector such that uses deep learning techniques to classify as real or fake. The system integrates YOLO (You Only Look Once) model with a web-based applications developed using Flask and JavaScript. Users can upload images through a user-friendly interface, and the system provides prediction result along with confidence scores. The model processes images in real time and ensures fast detection. Experimental results show that the system performs efficiently with good accuracy depending on the dataset quality. This research contributes to improving digital security by providing an automated solution for detecting AI-generated images. In this research, we developed an AI image fraud detection system using deep learning models such as VGG16, ResNet, and InceptionV3.Thesemodels are trained on a dataset containing both real and AI generated images. The system compares the performance of all three model to find which one give better accuracy. The model is trained on a dataset from Kaggle that contain both real and fake images of Aadhar- id photo and other documents. Image preprocessing techniques are used to improve performance of the model. The result show that deep learning models can effectively detect fake images, with one model performing better based on accuracy and efficiency. The study highlights that using multiple models improve reliability and provides a strong solution for detecting AI-generated images in real world applications. We also tested different settings of the model to understand what works best. Our study shows that it is a strong and reliable method for detecting AI-generated images and can be useful in real-world applications. Model is addressing the increasing challenge of AI-generated image detection, laying a foundation for future research in critical area.
