A deepfake video with former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried has gone viral on Twitter.
In the video, Bankman-Fried is promising people that he can double their money through a typical giveaway scam, by pointing victims to a website where they can win cryptocurrencies.
The website is registered to a person in Nevis, Puerto Rico, and displays the face of Bankman-Fried and and the FTX emblem.
What also makes this scam seem more ‘legitimate’, is that the Twitter account it is circulating on, has a blue checkmark, a symbol that the account has been verified.
It has been revealed the top 50 creditors to FTX are owed approximately $3.1billion.
