It was a video of someone pretending to tell you a secret: thanks to a new israeli app based on ai, it’s possible to make 8000 euro per month with trading by just opening an account with their referral and depositing 500 euro. 100% safe and definitely not a scam.

Maybe not a literal scam but imho deceiving people just because they’re going to give you $100 in referral money is a scam

    Send the scam a hundred bucks, lose it, sue Google for fraudulent endorsement.

    (Yes yes, this wouldn’t work in the real world against Google’s legions of lawyers, but I like the thought exercise)

      $100 is small claims territory. Most jurisdictions, it’s against the rules to hire an attorney and must be represented by someone who has the authority to make a settlement.

        What are the odds they send a “manager” who has that authority and they just ‘happen’ to be a lawyer? Also, would that be legal? I don’t see why it wouldn’t as they could just claim they are there in their capacity as a manager.
