I want to give a heads up on the latest ad technique being used: posing as a professional who gives a story with a lot of single lines, then presents a solution to the sad story that saved someone and it's a product you need to click an ad to get to.
I've been seeing this technique with products for humans, and tonight I am seeing one for dog health. Please take a look at the profiles of someone claiming a product (supplement, food, gadget, etc) and see if it's an actual person or company. This particular one I saw tonight was posing as a veterinary hospital and a veterinarian as the writer. This is fraud.
Details to look for fakes:
- Little to no information about the profile other than when it started
- No contact or location information listed
- AI-generated images with no attached information
- If there are any posts by them, they're all reposts
Please report these types of ads or profiles when you see them to protect yourself and others from misinformation.
