(during a YouTube video, I saw a short ad, probably generated by AI, showing purported Elon Musk with two unexplained other men, saying "visit MUSK26.COM" or "you'll regret it". The above response resulted from my using Brave to ask "what is musk26.com?")

On X I have at least 10 fake Musk accounts following me. That is what happens when you respond to one of them. When it eventually got around to the asking for money part I didn’t bite.

“….claims to be associated with Elon Musk and Tesla, promoting a cryptocurrency giveaway under the title “Elon Musk & Tesla: Giveaway”….”

Yes… long time scam. Similar “sucker” SCAMS have also popped up claiming to be associated with SpaceX. Don’t even click on such “invitations”.

SSL certificate only certifies the website is the website, nothing more it does not certify the content of the website. So I'm thinking something might be up with that... And on YouTube, very reliable, It must be true
