minutes." and a guy walked up on me and said to me, "leave trump alone. forget the story." and then he leaned around and looked at my daughter and said, "a beautiful little girl. it would be a shame if something happened to her mom." and then he was gone. >> this is not a publicity stunt. this is serious business. >> reporter: yesterday the pair create aid stir at a federal court hearing for cohen during which it was revealed cohen also represented fox news commentator sean hannity. >> let me set the record straight. here's the truth. >> reporter: hannity addressed his previously undisclosed relationship with the presidential's personal attorney last night. >> my questions exclusively almost focused on real estate. >> reporter: fox news has issued a statement saying, "we have reviewed the matter and spoken to sean and he continues to have our full support." but the company also acknowledges that they were not aware of the relationship between hannity and cohen before it was revealed in court yesterday. jeff? >> paula reid at the white house. paula, thanks. in a rare joint alert u.s. and british intelligence officials are warning that russian hackers are trying to

take control of computers in america to lay the groundwork for future cyber attacks. homeland security secretary kirstjen nielsen spelled out the danger to our jamie yuccas. >> they were exploiting and scanning vulnerabilities in network devices including routers which we all have in our homes. >> people have smart homes now. so it's not just your computer you have to think about the password. you have to think about every piece of information you're giving up. >> yes. the gist of it is anything connected to the internet could be attacked through the internet. i think we'll see more and more instances where there are causes of concern for everyday devices. >> you can see more of this interview with secretary nielsen at cbsnews.com.

we're entering an era in which our enemies can make it look like anyone is saying anything at any point in time. even if they would never say those things. so. >> seeing is believing, right? turns out president barack obama did not say those words. actor and director jordan peele did, to demonstrate how new technology is making it easy to create the fakest of fake news that looks very real. our carter evans got a closer look. >> reporter: this video is real. but the image of parkland shooting survivor emma gonzalez is not. it went viral anyway. that type of deception could be

harder to spot when the future of fake news is manipulated video. it starts with a selfie. >> let me just take a picture of you now. >> reporter: using that simple image, hao li, ceo of l.a.-based pin screen, can manipulate my face. >> it may look like i'm talking but i'm not. >> reporter: literally putting words in my mouth. >> my digital face is mimicking his. >> it even generates the little wrinkles. >> reporter: they can even control facial movements. >> this is a computer-generated image. watch when i move my eyebrows or open my mouth or turn my head, it tracks everything. >> reporter: li says it's all part of building a new virtual chat room world. >> how are you doing, my friend? >> reporter: but this type of advanced artificial intelligence technology is raising real eyebrows. >> i was kind of concerned in the beginning because, you know, you can imagine, right? you can do all kinds of like evil things with it. >> reporter: you could see a situation, though, where people might take an image of donald trump and make him say something he didn't say. >> yeah.

i mean, if you think about it, these kind of things already in some ways are possible. >> reporter: for example -- >> we're entering an era in which our enemies can make it look like anyone is saying anything at any point in time. >> reporter: comedian jordan peele released this psa today using lip-sync technology warning against the dangers of fake news. >> moving forward we need to be more vigilant with what we trust by the internet. >> reporter: concerned by the impact fake news had on the 2016 elections, the u.s. government is trying to get ahead of the new technology. >> all these things are automatic. >> reporter: dave doermann is project manager at darpa. it's the secret defense department agency trying to keep the country a step ahead of cyber threats. is the ability to manipulate video a threat to national security? >> i think absolutely. i think that's a very important national security concern. it can cause unrest. it can cause riots. other nation states could even act on some of this stuff. >> reporter: at darpa doermann put us in a conference room and

confiscated our phones for security. we then took a look at the software he's developing to identify the new generation of fake news. >> it's fairly hard to tell what was manipulated in this particular image. and if i go to the next slide here it's going to have a transition where it's showing you the process. >> reporter: the bright red means the car is not really there. >> so let me go on to something that's a little more complex here. >> when in the course of human events -- >> the blue line here is the audio of the first speaker. and then it detects that there was a second speaker. >> which i've connected them with another. >> to assume among the powers of the earth -- >> so it's detecting the changes there. >> it's detecting the changes. my vision is to have a program that every image, every video posted to a social media site go through this process. >> what the algorithm tries to do is to synthesize p. >> reporter: meanwhile, at pin screen hao li says it won't take long between the line between what's real and not will not exist. >> it might be a year. >> really? >> it's crazy.

li says we're a year away from not being able to tell if a video is real or not. are social media platforms ready? are. >> well, facebook says it's hired fact checkers to help identify altered images and fake news. google tells us it's working on digital detection tools but it's also working with publishers to allow them toe embed a digital watermark in images and video and that will make it easier they say to tell where everything's coming from. >> not going to be easy to stay >> not going to be easy to stay ahead of this one. if these packs have the same number of bladder leak pads, i bet you think bigger is better. actually, it's bulkier. always discreet quickly turns liquid to gel, for drier protection that's a lot less bulky. always discreet.

[ cheers and applause ] and early this morning, shortly after midnight, mary approached the finish line, crossing at 12:18 a.m., more than 15 hours after the first runners started the race. >> she's been amazing. and i'm just -- every day i'm inspired by her. >> reporter: it wasn't the photo finish she expected. but it was about the best one we can imagine. >> you can do anything. it may not be how you imagined it playing out, but you can still get it done. >> that is the "overnight news" for this wednesday. for some of you the news continues. for others check back later for the morning news and "cbs this morning." from the broadcast center in new york city i'm jeff glor.

♪ this is the "cbs overnight news." welcome to the "overnight news." i'm tony dokoupil. there was terror in the sky for passengers aboard a southwest airlines jet bound for dallas. a piece of one of the engines blew off at 30,000 feet and forced an emergency landing. one passenger was killed. michelle miller begins our coverage. >> air force 10 there is a hole in the side of the aircraft. >> copy. there's a hole in the side of your aircraft. >> the message to air traffic control was dire. >> yes i believe captain's side is where it began and that's the engine that went out. >> reporter: nearly 40 minutes into southwest flight 1380 from new york city to dallas the 18-year-old jet was flying at 32,000 feet when passengers say

they heard a loud boom. the left engine exploded. shrapnel damaged the fuselage, blowing out a window. one passenger was killed. dallas resident matt trancin said he started to say good-bye to his family. >> my wife is in her third trimester. our first child. so i spent a lot of my time trying to articulate what i wanted my final words to be to my unborn child, to my wife, to my parents. >> reporter: passenger marty martinez was one of the 144 passengers on board. we spoke to martinez by phone. >> it felt like it was free falling, going all -- going down, and we were probably going down to like 10, 15 minutes. and of course everyone's freaking out, everybody's crying. >> reporter: martinez said the

plane immediately lost cabin pressure and the oxygen masks dropped from the ceiling. he says several passengers desperately tried to plug the hole in the window caused by the shrapnel with jackets. after an emergency landing at philadelphia's airport passengers got a good look at the engine damage. southwest airlines chairman gary kelly. >> this is a sad day. and our hearts go out to the family and the loved ones of the deceased customer. >> the damaged engine at the center of this investigation is a cfm56-7b turbo engine. it is one of the most popular jet engines made. jet engine casings are designed to keep parts from flying off during an engine failure. robert sum wault is the ntsb chairman. >> we do know that parts came off the engine but those parts may not have been in that section of the engine that is associated with the protection region. >> retired ntsb board member and

consultant john golia believes the engine containment rings may have failed. >> whatever happened inside the engine exceeded that technology and that protection. and the pieces came out of the engine at a very high rate of speed. >> reporter: southwest has a very good safety record with only 17 accidents and incidents since it was founded in 1967. that includes a similar engine failure in august of 2016. there a flight from new orleans to orlando was forced to make an emergency landing in pensacola after the casing surrounding one of its engines tore away and left a 5 by 16-inch hole just above the wing. still, engine failures are very rare. >> and maybe they're related to that previous event and maybe they're not. but we need to understand what's going on here. defense secretary james mattis and joint chiefs chairman joseph dunford were summoned to capitol hill to explain the recent air strikes on syria. president trump ordered the attack after reports the assad regime used chemical weapons

against civilians. but members of both parties want answers about the long-term strategy in syria, especially after president trump changed his mind about punishing russia for its role. major garrett reports. >> reporter: the administration vowed new sanctions on russians linked to syrian chemical weapons. now those sanctions are on hold. president trump said he wanted to pull u.s. forces out within six months. now there is no timetable. so amid the precision of u.s. missile strikes in syria there is confusion over the syria strategy. >> did our generals do a great job? did our military do a great job? >> reporter: speaking in florida monday, president trump boasted about the u.s. strike on syria. but confusion about russia surfaced after the missile strikes. >> you will see that russian sanctions will be coming down. >> reporter: u.n. ambassador nikki haley said new sanctions on russia would come monday. but then president trump

intervened, delaying a decision. white house press secretary sarah sanders said more sanctions were merely under consideration. >> russia must decide if it will continue down this dark path. >> reporter: despite rising tensions with russia over syria, president trump still wants a white house summit with russian president vladimir putin. >> we're going to have to get serious about sanctions on russia. >> reporter: arizona republican jeff flake said the confusion over syria made the u.s. look weak. >> it's not a good sign if we're walking back statements made just a couple of days ago. >> reporter: the white house said the missile strikes were designed to cripple syria's chemical weapons arsenal. >> with way over 100 missiles shot in, they didn't shoot one down. >> reporter: but a pentagon analysis has concluded syria can and likely will rebuild its chemical weapons stockpile. and the missile strikes did nothing to change the seven-year civil war. >> the military strike itself was a tactical response well short of what i thought was justified. >> reporter: lawmakers like

south carolina republican lindsey graham were left to wonder what was achieved. >> so he's been a good commander in chief in general but this is a major step backwards. seth doane is one of the few western journalists inside syria. he paid a visit to the scene of the reputed chemical attack that touched off the recent u.s. strikes. >> reporter: rebel forces had held douma since nearly the start of this war, and the government fight to take it back was fierce. we got a chance to see what militants left as they fled just days ago. >> we've just been brought into what we've been told is some sort of bomb factory. >> reporter: syrians and their russian allies sifted through the enemy stockpile. >> you can see bins filled with mortars here. there are shells around all over the ground just above us some sort of artillery or rocket launcher. these are the makings of a war. >> reporter: while russian air power enabled bashar al assad's forces to win the fight, the

rebels used what they could to fire back. civilians were living here under bombardment from russian and syrian forces, air strikes. in many cases there was very little access to basic things like food, and you can see the need here today. we met this mother who'd been waiting for bread. "the rebels wouldn't allow us to leave," she said. retaking douma means the syrian government now controls the building hit in that suspected chemical attack, which sparked those coalition air strikes. >> this is your brother here? >> naser hanan told us his brother hamzeh died in the attack and took us to where he says the gas came from, a missile that struck the roof. the scene now has been cleaned up. and when weapons inspectors finally make it here they'll find not only time has passed

but plenty of people have passed through it too. through it too. seth doane, douma, i'm worried i can't find a safe used car. through it too. seth doane, douma, you could start your search at the all-new carfax.com that might help. show me the carfax? now the car you want and the history you need are easy to find. show me used minivans with no reported accidents. boom. love it.

... >> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." if you managed to file your taxes on time, they were due yesterday by the way, there's a good chance you're waiting on a refund. but beware. criminals are targeting those refunds, and the irs says in the past five years they've managed to steal more than $63 million from taxpayers. anna werner tells us how it's done. >> reporter: we followed the scammers' trail to duncan, oklahoma, population 30,000, where we found this scam has turned many people's lives upside down. police officer david wood supports a family of five on his city salary. so when he went to check his bank balance one day, he was surprised to find -- >> i had about $9,015 more than i anticipated.

>> reporter: a roughly $9,000 tax refund from the irs. with just one problem. it couldn't be real. >> it didn't make sense. >> because? >> i had not filed my taxes. i didn't get my w-2s to file my taxes. >> so there's no way you could have had a refund. >> none. no. that's when i knew there was something way out of place. >> reporter: he was right. it's a new tax scam. here's how it works. the criminals get their hands on returns from previous years, then use that information to file new fraudulent returns on unsuspecting victims. after the refund goes into the victim's bank account, the crooks posing as debt collectors for the irs follow up with a phone call, claiming the refund was an error, then direct them to a fraudulent website to return the money. sure enough, scammers called officer woods a week later. >> i told her, i said, "you listen to me, you piece of crap." >> reporter: suffice to say he told them off. >> crooks and cheats. i don't like it. >> reporter: he returned the money to the government.

but now the irs says his real refund of $3,000 will be delayed, possibly for months. and he's not the only victim here in duncan. >> i had a gut feeling that something was wrong. >> reporter: tax preparer annette craft says at least 230 of her clients have been affected by the scam. >> they are losing out because they were expecting this money. >> reporter: like 91-year-old ray prothrow, who found out about the scam from the irs while we were there. >> the 2017 tax return has been filed using his social security number. >> they ought to go to jail. >> reporter: his refund will be coming late. as will tire shop manager jerry duval's $5,800 return, already more than two months late. >> we planned on taking care of expenses, getting caught up on bills. we counted on it. >> reporter: he missed a $200 car payment, and on the very day we spoke with him -- >> my car got repoed.

>> they repossessed your car? i'm sorry. that's hard. that's hard. >> it's almost like they're robbed. and they are in desperate need. a lot of people are. >> reporter: so it's not just one tax preparer here in duncan, oklahoma. we've learned that there may be as many as 100 tax preparers across the country affected by this scam and those are just the ones they know of. so that could be tens of thousands of taxpayers. don fort heads the irs's criminal investigation division. >> we've seen an enormous uptick in the activity. hackers attempting to get information from tax professionals. >> his agent showed us where hackers then sell that information on the dark web. one seller offered this as an example. it's a midwestern couple's full 2016 tax return. >> these people, this couple have no idea that their returns

are sitting out there on the dark web for sale. >> yeah. probably not. >> reporter: the seller offered 200 tax returns for the equivalent of $8,000. 100% satisfaction guaranteed they said. the irs is investigating but says the crooks are likely organized crime rings overseas and out of reach. but back in duncan craft says the damage they've done to her business is real. >> my clients are more like a family. i want them to know that they can trust me, that i can trust them. it hurts. >> reporter: well, so far the irs can't say exactly how the hackers are operating. craft says her own computer experts tell her they don't believe her systems were hacked. but that still leaves the question of how exactly those hacks are being masterminded. a nationwide manhunt is under way for a minnesota grandmother accused of murder in two states. police believe 56-year-old lois

riess killed her husband david, then traveled to florida where she killed a woman to steal her identity. police released this video of riess in a bar with the second victim just days before she turned up dead. >> she is armed. she is dangerous. she looks like anyone's mother or grandmother. and she's a killer. >> reporter: the face of a nationwide manhunt is a 56-year-old grandmother from rural minnesota. >> we don't know exactly where she is. she could be anywhere at this time. >> reporter: police in florida say lois riess was at this fort myers brewery on april 5th. they say surveillance video from inside shows riess befriending her alleged victim, 59-year-old pamela hutchinson. four days later police found hutchinson dead in her florida condo. carmine marceno is with the sheriff's office. >> further investigation believes hutchinson was targeted by the suspect due to the similarities in her appearance. >> reporter: police believe riess assumed hutchinson's identity, stealing her credit cards and driver's license and fleeing in her white acura. family members say they're not

surprised to hear hutchinson was targeted. >> my cousin went out helping the world. she befriended this woman, the woman probably gave her some sob story. she took her in. she's just giving to a fault, to her death. >> reporter: police have been looking for riess since late march when they discovered her husband david riess dead of multiple gunshot wounds in the couple's rural minnesota home. missing, mr. riess's white cadillac and $11,000 illegally transferred from his bank accounts. from minnesota riess allegedly drove to iowa stopping at different casinos before continuing on to fort myers. police say she was most recently spotted in corpus christi, texas where investigators fear she could cross the border into mexico. >> as her resources go away, she may strike again. so everyone must use extreme caution and help us and assist us to bring this fugitive to justice. >> court records show riess was accused of stealing $78,000 from her disabled sister, money she

reportedly gambled away. police say they consider the fugitive grandmother armed and dangerous. the "overnight news" will be right back. dangerous. the overnight news will be right back. 60% of women wear the wrong size pad and can experience leaks.
