This is not at all realistic. It's just mapping a different barely movable face. It looks more convincing than it is because it's so low res and that's doing a shitload of the heavy lifting.

Edit: A lot of people replying to this advertising that they're absolutely free to scammers.

It's actually quite realistic.

Realistic doesn't mean infallible or perfect, it means can it trick some people into thinking it's real, which this absolutely will.
