Wayne Gretzky has NOTHING to do with Bitcoin UP - Fake CBC Site EXPOSED

This is yet another fake news article created to promote the "Bitcoin UP" binary options scam. They've tried to make it have some resemblance to the real CBC website, but it's still obviously a variation of the old favourite "Entertainment Today" layout. If this was real, then multiple websites would be reporting on it, not just a shady copyright-infringing fake news site. Wayne Gretzky has NEVER endorsed a binary options system. Stay away from Bitcoin UP, and don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

YuanPay's new trick

Remember the YuanPay scam I told you about earlier? I not only got them permanently kicked off of Netlify, but when they switched to GitHub Pages, I got them kicked off of that, and when they switched to GitLab, I got them kicked off of THAT. However, after getting kicked off of GitLab, they went back to GitHub and continued their series of AdSense ads. However, instead of the fake Forbes article, when you click on the ad, it shows this. That's just a landing page. If you click on the "I accept", it goes here, which is just the same fake Forbes article, except every instance of "cryptocurrency" is replaced with "electrocurrency", which is a made-up word the scammers use to sound cooler. Also note that, after 4 months of using free hosting services, the scammers seem to have finally figured out how to register a domain. Once again, stay away from YuanPay, and don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Most elaborate scam fake news site I've ever seen.

This is the most elaborate scam fake news site I've ever seen. The story is obviously fake, as usual. If this was real, then other outlets would be reporting it. However, instead of making a static HTML page, they have created a whole WordPress blog, with multilingual variations as well, showing that they are targeting other countries as well as Canada. They also have RevContent ads that link to even more scam sites. Stay away from Europa Casino, and don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Keanu Reeves did NOT Create Canadian Extracts Hemp Oil - Fake People Magazine Site EXPOSED

This is a fake People Magazine website, created to shill some scammy hemp oil. It claims that Keanu Reeves created it, which is obvious BS. The red flags are obvious - the un-People-Magazine-like URL, the fake comments section, the free trial offer, and the fact that the REAL People Magazine would not shill a hemp oil like this. This is being advertised on legitimate news sites using a Google AdSense ad that links to a "tabloid cloaking" page, hosted on a Shopify site. Google and Shopify are doing NOTHING about this, unlike Netlify and GitHub, which routinely take down the YuanPay fake news scam sites I report to them. The link trail:

Stay away from Canadian Extracts Hemp Oil, and as always, don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Justin Trudeau Has NOTHING To Do With Bitcoin UP - Fake Toronto Star Website EXPOSED

This is an obviously fake Toronto Star website, created to shill a scammy binary options platform. You can tell it's fake by the several common red flags: it uses a variant of the "Entertainment Today" layout instead of the real Toronto Star layout, the domain is a .eu domain (Canada is NOT an European country), the comments are fake and don't work, all the links go to the same spam page, and no real news site would shill a binary options platform like this. They forgot to mention the name of the platform (whoops), but clicking on any of the images links to something called "Bitcoin UP", which is an obvious scam. Stay away from Bitcoin UP, and don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

I've changed my mind on online casinos.

When I originally started this blog, I thought that all online casinos were legitimate, and that the fake news created to promote these casinos was the work of rogue affiliates. But now, I know for a fact that most online casinos are scams. I will treat them the same way I do all other scams - with extreme prejudice.

"YuanPay" is NOT China's Official Cryptocurrency - Fake Forbes Website(s) EXPOSED (+ a host that actually takes down scam sites?)

This is not a real Forbes article. It is an impersonation, created to promote the "YuanPay" cryptocurrency scam. Surprisingly, the free web host these scammers use, Netlify, is actually responding to my abuse reports, and is deleting these sites. ("These sites" because the scammers create multiple mirror versions of the same fake news page.) So, all you see now is this. As of the time of writing, however, the scammers are still creating more mirrors. The red flags are the usual: fake comments, an overtly-promotional tone that the real Forbes wouldn't use, and the very un-Forbes-like URL. Stay away from YuanPay Group, and don't believe everything you read on the Internet.
