🚨 Scammers Are Using Deepfakes of Famous Doctors to Sell Sketchy Supplements

A massive campaign is unfolding on social media to promote the Wellness Nest brand. Scammers take real archival lecture footage and use AI to clone the expert's voice and sync the lip movements. As a result, respected doctors appear to "sell" untested supplements and talk about made-up conditions like the so-called "thermometer leg."

Even TV doctor Michael Mosley, who died in 2024, has become a target. His digital clone was "brought back to life" in ads for diabetes remedies. And a serious lecture on child health by Professor David Taylor-Robinson was turned by scammers into a promo for pills supposedly helping with menopause ⤴️

🗑️ TikTok claims it proactively removes 94% of such deepfakes. Still, due to the sheer volume of content, thousands of videos still slip into users' feeds.

Wellness Nest itself distances the brand from these ads and insists it "never uses AI in advertising," but says it "cannot control partners all around the world."
