Online advertising scams emerge in endlessly, and most of them claim that celebrities disclose their investment experience. Even Leung Chun-ying, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and former chief executive, has recently become the "protagonist" of scams.
Recently, there was a webpage claiming that Leung Chun-ying promoted Bitcoin Future (Bitcoin futures) investment on ViuTV. He clarified today (23rd) that there was no such thing, and publicly held the type of investment, saying that he had never invested in Bitcoin Future.
In 2019, there have been counterfeit Stephen Chow, Law Chi-kwong, Chen Maobo, etc.
The ad is actually a fraud case of pretending to be a celebrity sharing investment experience for many years. It was first reported in 2019. It is a phishing website that has appeared in large numbers on platforms such as Facebook and Google. Investment makes all experts speechless, major firms speechless", and "so and so" has changed many people, including Alan Tam, Aaron Kwok, Donnie Yen, Stephen Chow, Eason Chan, Louis Koo, former Secretary of Labor and Welfare Law Chi-kwong, Financial Secretary Chief Secretary Chen Maobo, Chief Executive Li Jiachao, and the latest person is Chief Secretary for Administration Chen Guoji.
According to the information of netizens, there has been a deception case involving Leung Chun-ying at the latest in May.
Netizens of Liandeng took screenshots in May, showing that the scam had already appeared by May at the latest.
Claiming to be a "wealth loophole" lured to download a program to buy Bitcorn Future
The fraudulent website claimed that the above-mentioned celebrity accepted the "ViuTV Interviu" program hosted by Luo Peiqi, "revealing a brand new "wealth loophole"", and said that Luo Peiqi felt unbelievable, "This method has caused many people in Hong Kong to discuss it."
The webpage will recommend downloading programs, set up automatic trading, and write a statement claiming to be the famous person: "Everyone wants to be rich, but no one knows how to do it. Well, this is the best opportunity for you to become rich as a world. You can actually live some of the life you desire. This opportunity won’t last forever, so don’t miss it.” Of course, the interview and content are all fake.
Only properties and fixed deposits, not even stocks
Leung Chun-ying posted the content of the scam webpage on Facebook, clarifying that he never invested in Bitcoin Future, let alone recommend it.
He disclosed the type of investment, saying that apart from the residential properties and fixed deposits purchased in Hong Kong, Singapore and the United Kingdom in the early years, he did not have any investment tools, not only Bitcoin, but also stocks.
Fraudulent advertisement impersonates Chen Guoji to lure people to click on suspicious "investment platform".
