Recently, a new trend of frauds has been spreading, which are increasingly dangerous and sophisticated. Fraudsters create fake websites that at first glance look like well-known media outlets and post fake interviews with well-known personalities on them. In these articles, “celebrities” describe how they lost weight, got younger or got rich thanks to specific products or drugs, which are then linked to fraudulent payment sites.
The goal is only one, and that is to extort money from people and abuse the trust they have in well-known names. The face of a famous actress, singer or presenter is supposed to act as a guarantee of truth, but in reality it is made up stories, falsified quotes and edited photos.
The well-known presenter Simona Simanová also drew attention to such fraud on the social network. On the fraudulent website, which pretends to be an interview with the presenter, the text describes how she was ashamed of her figure for years, unsuccessfully tried to lose weight and in the end, she allegedly found a method that helped her get rid of more than twenty kilograms.
The website claims that a product recommended by a nutritionist helped her lose weight and that it made her feel more confident. However, in reality, this is a fictional conversation that tries to convince readers to buy an unknown preparation.
Simanová herself draws attention to this. She attracted the attention of her followers. “This is a fake. I’ve never taken anything in my life and I don’t even advertise. If I lose 22 kg in 2 months, I’m done. I’d weigh 33 kg. And they misused my name.” she wrote angrily. You can find a PHOTO post in the gallery.
