Facebook and other social media platforms are still allowing scammers to post adverts offering how to make money from BITCOIN.
The scammers are using famous personalities as endorsement without their permission to tempt people into signing up for an initial $250 deposit, approx £190.
Martin Lewis, the UK money expert, is currently suing Facebook for misuse of his image, but this has not stopped Facebook accepting these fake adverts which adds to its income.
As Martin says "something no one should touch with a bargepole" and suggests that you use the report to FB option to report as a scam and even comment that these are a scam and not endorsed by the personality being used.
Thousands of people are being conned out of their savings, often in the tens of thousands and to many people in vulnerable situations who can least afford to lose any money.
QLOCAL SAYS PLEASE IGNORE ADS LIKE THOSE SHOWN BELOW, BETTER STILL USE THE REPORT TO FACEBOOK OPTION AS A SCAM.
