Mara Venier claims she's the victim of a scam: "I'm the unwitting victim of a scam targeting gullible people." The television host has decided to take legal action to block a video in which her image is being used to promote financial products. Venier wants to defend herself from the abusive use of her image and the fact that it's being used to induce her fans to invest money. The lawsuit was filed by her lawyer, Giorgio Assumma.

What happened? A financial advisor created a Facebook post on October 2nd using an animated, talking photo of Mara Venier, created using artificial intelligence. The post invites the user to invest money in a financial project that promises to provide a fixed monthly income. The post refers to cryptocurrencies, which supposedly can lead to financial independence as quickly as possible. The user is also asked to wait for a call and follow the instructions.

Venier explained that he discovered he was the victim of a scam thanks to numerous calls from his fans, who were shocked by his participation in a clearly deceptive initiative. He instructed his lawyer to take all necessary administrative and legal action to stop the fraud and obtain compensation for damages. Attorney Assumma confirmed that he has already activated the most rapid legal and administrative means and contacted the informal police, who revealed that the profile of the person responsible for the scams is not in their database of financial advisors and that numerous similar cases have been reported, in which money or even medication is requested.

Mara Venier defends herself against the misuse of her image and claims she is the victim of a scam. The host has taken serious legal action to combat the illegal use of her image and protect her fans from future scams. It's important to be aware and wary of promises of easy money and financial investments that seem too good to be true. Technology can be used fraudulently, and it's crucial to exercise caution and vigilance when dealing with financial investments.
