PIB Fact Check Warns of Fake Investment Video
Imagine someone made a video of the Prime Minister promoting an investment platform called 'QuantumAI'.
They asked people to invest money.
But, the government's fact-checking team, PIB Fact Check, said the video was fake.
It wasn't real, but made to trick people.
They also warned about another fake ad saying the government would give people money if they invested.
They said it was a scam and people shouldn't trust it.
PIB Fact Check labeled a video promoting an investment platform as 'fake' and 'AI-generated'.
The video allegedly showed Prime Minister Narendra Modi promoting 'QuantumAI' and asking for an investment of ₹22,000.
PIB Fact Check warned citizens not to fall for such scams.
An advertisement falsely claimed that the Finance Ministry introduced an investment platform promising ₹3.5 lakh monthly return for a ₹21,000 investment.
PIB confirmed that the image and video are digitally altered and not from a legitimate news source.
