Invest £200 and make many £1000's within weeks

Keep seeing these online with celebrities like Peter Jones, Martin Lewis, even BBC newsreaders and others inviting people to invest in these AI generated scams.

Surely no one falls for these scams?

Or do they?

I'm sure the celebrities are being used as a front entirely unwittingly and I always imagine they could therefore sue.

The Diary of a CEO fella who's also on Dragon's Den says this happens a lot to him, and mentioned a single mum who lost £3000 to it. Desperately sad, though it's obvious to most there's a not insignificant portion of society who aren't digitally literate in this way. My dad, who is otherwise very sharp and intelligent, nearly fell for something I wouldn't have thought for all the world he would take seriously. But he just doesn't use a phone often, he's not used to the conventions of communication on different platforms.
