Most of the ones I see are just spam emails for some amazing new heater/air conditioner/phone charger with Musks name and face on them, they don’t even bother with a deep fake.

Since when is Deepfake Musk a bigger scammer than real Musk? The man’s been selling “full self-driving” upgrades to Teslas for years, and they’re no closer to “full self-driving” now than they were at the start. Surely real Musk has scammed far more people.

Probably why this scam works so well. It’s like how the bad spelling etc in phishing helps to weed out the less susceptible people so they don’t waste their time.
If you’re already falling for the Musk bullshit, then you’re a prime target.

The scams are designed as alzheimers screening tools. Teaching will help some people, but not that many.
It’s very interesting! kitboga actually paid to get into this Elon AI scam, and talked to this sociopath Lana for a long while.
As soon as you sign up for the AI “trading” scam, you get added onto a database to be spammed endlessly by scammers who bought into the ads.
