An advertisement on Facebook is circulating a video falsely showing External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar endorsing an investment project that claims to offer ₹80,000 per day. #PIBFactCheck ❌ The video is digitally altered and #FAKE. ✅ Neither External Affairs Minister @DrSJaishankar nor the Government of India has endorsed, authorised, or promoted any such investment project or platform. 🚨 Do not click on suspicious links or share your personal, financial, or bank details. ⚠️ Scammers often use fabricated endorsements and promises of extraordinary returns to deceive people into fraudulent investment schemes.
