Beware: Fake Investment Scheme Using TVJ Anchors’ Likeness
In today’s digital age, scams are becoming more sophisticated—and the latest one hitting Jamaican social media platforms is a clear example.
A video is circulating online featuring familiar faces: Giovani Dennis and Andrea Chisholm, both respected news reporters and anchors at Television Jamaica (TVJ). The video appears to promote a “very profitable investment scheme.” However, let’s set the record straight: this is a scam.
As Giovani and Andrea themselves explained, the video is AI-generated and fraudulent. The voices don’t even sound like them—because they aren’t. No legitimate offer would come in this form, and certainly not from trusted journalists promoting an unverified investment.
Think carefully:
-
If the Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) or any other reputable financial institution were behind such an offer, it would be clearly advertised on their official website and through official channels—not in random social media posts.
-
This is nothing more than a digital deception designed to exploit the trust people place in familiar faces.
The anchors have made it clear: “Report the post, shut it down, ignore it. It’s a scam.”
They also made a point that should resonate with everyone: Stop messaging them asking if it’s real—it’s not.
So here’s what to do if you come across this video:
-
Do not engage with or share the content.
-
Report the video and the account posting it to the platform.
-
Warn your friends and family so they don’t fall victim.
In this fast-changing world of AI and social media manipulation, skepticism is your best defense. If something sounds too good to be true—especially on social media—it almost certainly is.
Stay vigilant. Protect your money and your peace of mind.
