Just wanted to report on these fake illegal ads on Facebook that claim that Mrbeast or some other famous person, sometimes included with a fake news clip. When clicking into these ads you are met with a seemingly legitimate app that isn’t about gambling but on closer inspection is a gambling app stealing money and sometimes bank details .
These apps also frequently have 2 identical versions on the app store [/img][/img][/img]
Here are some examples:
- Mr beast and sky news ad for land of sweet bonanza .i have thoroughly researched this one and it seems the UK version of the app was hacked. Developers (90% legit) have been contacted and has been reported to the authorities. However, that doesn’t mean that the hackers will face justice
App:
https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/land-of-sweet-bonanza/id1667810122 make sure you don’t open this away from the App Store app if not in the UK as that is the only one affected as far as I can tell.
Ad :

2 ) ad: Push for start game | By Lovely | Facebook (another fake Mr Beast one
Ad: Facebook

There are tons of these things though so I may update this list.
I Personally want to find out who is running these ads as they appear to be from fake accounts. Also, who is Hacking/ running these apps as reporting them likley only get them taken down 1 at a time.
