Fraudulent advertisements have reportedly begun circulating Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) offering to join the Telegram Open Network (TON) investment platform.
As Russian news outlet Kommersant reported on Sept. 20, ads promoting the so called “Successful Investor” account appeared on Facebook. Once clicked, the ad leads to a website disguised as Russian economics and technology media outlet RBC, where a publication — which looks like an investigation article — has built-in links to a site with a video featuring a “unique scheme” of earnings and a form for registration supposedly for the TON platform.
