Litterbugs war mongers hate mongers propagandists.
I'm sure there's more.
Him of tv fame. I think he started off on Richard and Judy but am not 100% about that.
Anyway he keeps popping up on my FB in an advert with Richard Branson with the cure for diabetes.
Anyone know what it's about?
 
I can only assume that it's yet another racket.
I've watched the advert through.
Branson has invested fifty million quid in it.
Hillary had to save his brother and had two weeks to do it.
In that two weeks he discovers a rare plant in the Himalayas and twelve other ingredients when mixed with sodium in just the right amounts cures diabetes for life!!!
All that in two weeks and gets fifty million quid out of Branson to help get it all going.
See why I'm just a little sceptical?
 
What I'm asking is as has anyone fallen for this patter and now out of pocket or miraculously cured.
If out of pocket which is what I expect it really maddens me!
All these snake oil salesmen!

There have been a number of fake uses of images of Hilary Jones, Michael Mosley, Richard Branson etc - all potential/actual scams. We had a few posts about this last year, I think. It's probably doing the rounds again.

I would have thought that if Branson etc had really got the "cure" for diabetes we'd be hearing all about it in other places. So I think what you have there is 101% scam, but the people whose images are being used (without their consent) aren't actually involved.

Great stuff and let this be a warning to these types of scams!
It's very cleverly produced.

The Facebook algorithm let's things pop up repeately if you've clicked on it before, watched it, or spend a longer time looking at a post before scrolling on.
So you likely more or less trained Facebook to keep showing you those scams.
 
This was actually on a TV programme last year ( don’t ask which one or when) the guy himself was saying it’s a deep fake scam
 
There are deep fake scams regarding tiny USB charged AI dogs too? (We’ve spotted the “non invasive BG watches.)
The adds get taken down then pop back up else where?

Lol. You can tell the dogs are AI generated.. there is one clip of a “Geppetto” looking guy in a workshop using a screwdriver on a lemon??? (Not a typo.)
& producing these dogs..
(Edit. I won’t ad link, no wish to contravene advertising forum guidelines.)

Some guys on YouTube exposed the scam by purchasing these “lifelike AI dogs.”
What they got was replaceable battery operated rigid crudely animated yapping toy tech from 40 years ago…

If it was a reality? I would have loved to get my mum one…

You should have seen these dogs?
Adorable..

Would have looked good in a sci fi…
Apart from the poor old technician knocking these out by the thousands on a bench with a screwdriver like an underpayed Santa….
 
If it looks like a fish and smells like a fish it’s a fish

Say a lot about my mindset..
I’ve seen Samuel L Jackson effin & jeffin his way through a Disney Snow White remake as the title character.
There are some interesting parodies being made..

The scams need to be shot down..
 
I would take a wild guess as it's AI generated and neither Dr Jones or Sir Richard have anything to do with it. If it pops up again report it as a scam

Yes it has already been determined to be a scam.
