I have been really busy recently, writing articles about famous people.
I’ve done interviews with the likes of Zoe Ball, Jeremy Clarkson and Chris Tarrant.
There has been a common theme to these stories, and it is all about how each celebrity made vast sums of money from an online investment opportunity in crypto currencies.
And if this all sounds a bit unbelievable, that’s because it is – I hadn’t done a single one of these interviews, nor written any of the articles. And none of the famous people involved, or me, would dream of endorsing crypto investments of any kind.
Instead, the fake stories were all AI-generated scams that appeared on Facebook news feeds in a BBC template, and with my byline.
