Over 35 fake Elon Musks live-streamed during SpaceX launch

Dozens of YouTube livestreams hosted deep fake Elon Musk’s touting a crypto scam amid SpaceX’s fourth Starship rocket launch.

“This is not a fake, this is a real giveaway. I personally guarantee it to you,” one of 35 deepfake versions of Elon Musk promised.

The scammy streams coincided with Musk’s SpaceX fourth test launch of its giant reusable Starship rocket. The real livestream showed it survived re-entry through Earth’s atmosphere, splashing down as planned in the Indian Ocean.Cointelegraph found one YouTube channel had masqueraded as an official SpaceX account and pushed three simultaneous livestreams airing the scam, with 170,000 viewers tuning in — likely bots to make the stream appear legitimate.

The AI voice did a decent job at copying Musk’s vocal disfluencies, such as stutters and pauses — and promised “this is not a fake, this is a real giveaway. I personally guarantee it to you.”
