And when we read the article on that RHS ads column on these pages, its about him being interviewed by Jon Ross all about AI and investing > £250 to make money automatically.

I was always taught that if something sounded too good to be true, leave it alone. Would the admins here post this if it was a scam ? Screenshot 2023-09-13 at 16.03.16.png

Nick, the screenshot you see in my post was on the right hand side of the screen where ads are usually sited. Hadn’t anyone else seen it or was it just me ?

Thanks for clarifying.

Those are advertisements...not anything posted by the site Admins. We get them via an advertising service.

Thanks Nick though my question remains; is it a scam or are we all going to be millionaires ?
