Scammers are impersonating Elon Musk to steal cryptocurrency—sometimes using AI-generated videos, fake websites, and even claims of romantic relationships.
Recent FTC complaints reveal:
Victims sent $65K–$225K thinking they’d double their crypto via SpaceX or Tesla promotions.
Scammers targeted elderly and vulnerable individuals, including those with medical conditions.
Platforms used: YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Telegram, and Coinbase.
Lesson: Never trust social media or AI-generated “celebrity” crypto offers.
