Thanks for finding that, Hollydays.

I think it is the same thing, a released video allegedly of a clip from a popular TV show , these light morning programmes do not do financial endorsements .

Or maybe the OP actually saw that episode of This Morning - as I did.

I watched that clip and thought 'Yeah. Right. Nothing to see here.Move along'.

In no way did it encourage me to invest on Ann's recommendation.
But it seems the OP thought it was a good idea...

The Mirror article does contain this alleged quote from Ruth Langsford:

"Digital currencies are so hot right now, and even if someone like me, who has no prior knowledge or experience, can make money from it, I'm all in. I need to have a piece of this!" Ruth Langsford.

Believing investment advice from Ruth Langsford? :eek:
Might as well take a course in tact and diplomancy from Donald Trump.
Or fashion advice from Boris Johnson.

I'm still not convinced that this can be deemed celebrity endorsement.

I'm not sure the Daily Mirror can be judged as innocent, if you scroll down the link from Hollydays, they 'put the platform to the test' and made £6300.59 from the initial £250 investment in what appears to be 3 weeks.

Here's another one, which I found by cutting and pasting some of the text of the first one , written by the same so called " rose hill"
https://itechmoney.com/uk/news/money/teenager-reveals-how-he-earns-30k-every-month/

How odd.
The first link gives a quote allegedly by Ruth Langsford:

"I've heard about digital currencies and the massive amount of money you can make from it, but I've never bought any. I had no idea where to start. This was really easy, I can just use my credit card to deposit money, and it buys them for me." Ruth Langsford.

and the second links gives a quote allegedly by Holly Willoughby:

"I've heard about digital currencies and the massive amount of money you can make from it, but I've never bought any. I had no idea where to start. This was really easy, I can just use my credit card to deposit money, and it buys them for me." Holly Willoughby.

Word for word.

Maybe they were both reading from the same autoqueue. :think:

Actually, both articles are identical apart from the names of the 'guests' and the names of the 2 female presenters.

Isn't it a coincidence that after both these episodes of This Morning aired, the Daily Mirror 'put the platform to the test' and made exactly the same amount of money i.e. £6300.59. :whistle:

Shame on you, the Daily Mirror.
Sloppy journalism at its worst.

Doing a quick Google search for "I've heard about digital currencies and the massive amount of money you can make from it, but I've never bought any. I had no idea where to start."
Shows it to be a very popular phrase.

Lance Alexander describing his experience after signing up on the platform.
“I’ve heard about digital currencies and the massive amount of money you can make from it, but I’ve never bought any. I had no idea where to start. This was really easy, I can just use my credit card to deposit money, and it buys them for me.”

Among the other celebs who have allegedly used the same quote are Conor McGregor , Cilian Murphy, Lionel Messi, Christian Ronaldo and Joaquin Phoenix.
