Elon Musk mocks cryptocurrency scammers impersonating "attractive girl"

Tweet and Reaction

Elon Musk posted a meme mocking bots that impersonate attractive women to promote fake giveaways in cryptocurrencies.

Just a few days ago, the BBC reported the story of Roderick Lodge, a 69-year-old man who was scammed out of £85,000 by a woman named "Anita".

He believed they were in a romantic relationship, and after planning to move to Kenya and marry her, she disappeared. He lost all his life savings, and despite receiving warnings from his bank, Lodge felt completely let down in the end.
