We repeatedly warn about fraudulent advertisements on Facebook that abuse Stefan Raab and Dieter Bohlen from Germany and Armin Wolf Misrepresented as if they had been arrested, these celebrities serve as bait to lure inexperienced users to dubious Bitcoin sites that look like the " Bild " newspaper or the " OE24 " or " Zeit-Online "

Now fraudsters are attacking Mimikama directly

Mimikama's efforts to uncover these scams have led scammers to adopt new methods. They are now misusing Mimikama's trademark, the "Mimikama.org" URL, in new fake ads.

In doing so, they want to give the impression that we at Mimikama ourselves are behind the advertisements - a claim that is far from the truth and is FALSE!

The creator of these advertisements is called “PURRI”. It is a Facebook page! It is impossible to say whether this site has been taken over by scammers! The fact is that this site has a lot of administrators from different countries such as Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, United Kingdom, Uzbekistan, India, United States, Argentina, Cambodia, France, Thailand, Ukraine

Facebook: A platform that doesn't do enough

What's particularly disturbing is that despite repeated warnings and evidence, Facebook is doing little to nothing to stop these deceptive ads. Unsuspecting users are repeatedly lured into these traps without effective countermeasures being taken by Facebook.

Call to action

We at Mimikama will continue to do everything in our power to expose these fraudulent practices and inform the public. However, it is time for Facebook to take responsibility and protect its users. It's not just about protection against internet fraud, but also about trust in the digital media and platforms that we rely on every day. Abusing this trust can cause widespread harm and undermine the many benefits of the digital age. It is time for us all to stand together against this kind of abuse.
