For some users, a profile picture seems to be enough to believe everything a supposed celebrity writes on Facebook.

In the last few days, more and more alleged pages of ex-wrestler and actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson have appeared, who is said to be giving away a total of over 1.5 billion dollars to 31 users who share his post in 19 groups.

Different pages, always the same text

The text, always automatically translated using the Facebook translator, reads as follows:

Surprise in the next [XX] hours I will randomly select people on Facebook, everyone who shares will get a gift card and cash. Choose your date of birth and you will receive according to your date of birth.
Do it for faith.

Dwayne Johnson suddenly speaks Spanish?

The posts are automatically translated using the Facebook Translator. Now you would think that the original is probably in English, like on his real Facebook page , but no: the texts are in Spanish, which you can see if you click on "Show original" under the posts:

A look at the pages also reveals that we are not dealing with the real Dwayne:

Strange name changes

It looks very much like these are former, normal sites that were taken over and now want to attract users with the new name.

What's behind it?

At the moment we are still waiting to receive a message from one of the accounts about our win (which will certainly happen), but it is noticeable that there is always a certain one between the answers from the users who diligently comment with their date of birth Page is propagated that all commenters should click on:

A Spanish competition?

In German:

To the people who have commented and shared my publications
Step 1, register your name ? https://bit.ly/XXXXXX ?
Step 2, wait 5 minutes, we will send you your gift.
God bless you… – • ° * “˜. – • ° *“ ˜

When you click on it, you come across a supposed competition that congratulates you in Spanish on being chosen as the winner:

Dwayne allegedly promotes Spanish competitions?

If you were in Spain, you would probably come to a similarly dubious site, but in this country you would be redirected to a dubious video platform that promises you free films, but demands horrendous monthly fees

Will Dwayne Johnson's films be shown there?

Conclusion

All profiles of this type are fake. Even if Dwayne Johnson wanted to, with a net worth of $290 million, he's unlikely to give away over $1.5 billion on Facebook (after learning Spanish).

These are all profiles that aim to collect user data and link to dubious sites!
