Mo Abudu warns public over fake video promising N700,000 daily earnings

Nigerian media mogul Mosunmola “Mo” Abudul, popularly regarded as Mo Abudu, has dismissed the viral video circulating online that falsely claimed she had announced a project allowing Nigerians to earn more than 700,000 naira daily.

The EbonyLife Group founder in an Instagram post warned the public against the video, noting that it was generated by Artificial intelligence, AI.

She clarified that she had not requested money from anyone and would never do so in that manner, describing the video as fake and misleading.

“It’s important that I address a fake video currently circulating online from a Facebook account called “Naija Capital Growth.” Please note that my voice and the message in the video has been altered,” she said. I have not asked anyone for money, and I would never ask for money in this way or manner. This video is completely fake and misleading,” she stated.

Mo Abudu revealed that the original video was from an interview she granted in 2023 with the Editor of Forbes women, Maggie McGrath. She warned the public not to fall victim of such scams.

”For clarity, the original video being manipulated with AI, was an interview I did with Maggie McGrath, Editor of Forbes Women, during my trip to Abu Dhabi as a speaker at the Forbes 30/50 Summit on the 23rd of March, 2023. You can swipe to find the original video. Please do not send or part with any money in relation to this fake video. I kindly ask that you help me circulate this message as widely as possible to prevent others from being scammed or misled”, she concluded.
