Facebook shows no improvement! Does Facebook even want that?
Because you turn off your own money tap a little. And when it comes to money, fakes are obviously allowed. Fakes in which brands and company names are misused, fakes in which Facebook users are misled, fakes which can end up costing users dearly.
All of this is embodied in these absurd advertisements on Facebook, which are about supposed scenes from the show “The Lion’s Den”. Shocked lions, scandalous products, unwanted insights. The methods used to display these advertisements are always the same - and Facebook happily makes money from them all. So why protect your own users by no longer enabling advertisements like this?

As in this screenshot, you can clearly see that these status messages appear as advertisements on Facebook. You can always recognize ads on Facebook by the fact that they have the word “Sponsored” on them.
Nothing new!
This type of advertising, which ultimately ends in a so-called “fabricated contend”, i.e. a form of fake news, is regularly decorated with still images and alleged situations from “The Lion’s Den”.
Regardless of whether it is with this teaser shown on Facebook or in other very similar cases: it is commercial fake news. After clicking on the teaser on Facebook, a website opens that presents itself in the form of a newspaper report. The website displayed is a pseudo-editorial article that is only intended to entice readers to click on the built-in advertising links. Here you will find content that has the character of a journalistic article.
By the way, nothing has changed in the method, the fake news behind it and the presentation for months, so we can repeat at this point:
Damage to reputation
This sponsored teaser on Facebook takes you to a website that suggests it is Spiegel Online. Of course, the mirror has absolutely nothing to do with this, it's just creating a false sense of seriousness:

What we actually find is classic commercial fake news. Since the content is completely fictitious, it is referred to as manufactured content . We therefore repeat again:
Commercial fake news contains pseudo-editorial content that has no truth and does not have to have any truth.
Likewise, the content does not have to be related to the headline. They present themselves in the form of a news website, which ultimately isn't one.
The content speaks to a desire/fear (in this case just desire).
The author doesn't care about the content, it's about displaying advertising or effectively incorporating advertising links.

Looked:
The website itself has no imprint, no data protection information or other characteristics of origin. The article on the website is about presenting a product as effectively as possible. A Bitcoin trading model is heavily promoted in the text, but also next to it and below it. In the end, this also includes a large number of supposed user comments that report on how successful this model is. What looks like a high level of positive interaction is nothing more than part of the advertising scam.
If you follow the product links that are built into the pseudo-editorial text on the website, you will end up in an affiliate sales program. In the end there is a dubious Bitcoin trade method. This means whoever wrote the pseudo-editorial article is likely to have an interest in the readership signing up to this model. It is important that the fake story sounds as credible as possible in advance, but at the same time also has a high potential for virality.
Annoying!
Facebook's filter detects every type of nipple. Facebook itself claims to be taking tough action against fake news. But Facebook can't recognize a simple, misleading advertising method that also illegitimately uses brand and product names?
Must be the money blocking the view.
