“And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”
And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.”
Islam has a very similar concept in the Dajjal (deceptive Messiah) at the end times. Explicitly described as a young man with a blind right eye, however, at least he should be obvious when he comes! But there are also warnings about other false prophets.
(It also says Qiyamah will occur when "wealth overflows" and people compete over it: make of that what you will).
I think all religions have built in protections calling every other religion somehow false, or they will not have the self-reinforcement needed for multi-generational memetic transfer.
Dajjal becoming a *chan mascot in 3... 2... 1...
(They will probably make him a girl or something like a 'femboy' though...)
