Just to flag to all, although no doubt obvious to pretty much anyone with a brain - that there are scam ads running titled "Rumors about Martin Lewis have been confirmed" - seen today on an Independent newspaper article accessed via msn.com on Microsoft Edge

Directs to a dedicated website "informationaboutmartin.org" which is a whole lot of fake rubbish about a clearly fake algorithmic trading platform supposedly endorsed on a TV program that the Bank of England(!!) took off the air to prevent people find out about it.  Uh uh.

Sadly some people will presumably fall for this and send their money off to the crims ... don't be one of them!
