DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS
"The billionaire entrepreneur has sent engineers to help the boys, aged 11 to 16, and their football coach who have been stuck in a cave following a flash flood for almost two weeks."
Musk tweeted on Saturday: "Some good feedback from cave experts in Thailand.
"Will do my best to help the team," he tweeted, before adding: "The team will dig deep and will help at the best of ability."
Among his tweets about the rescue, he also said: “But let’s not submit to the bad mood entirely. And for that I have a surprise to brighten up the day.”
"He then tweeted a link to a Tesla giveaway."
In an interesting case, one of the Elon Musk giveaway scams was so convincing that the news team at Sky News picked it up and reported it as part of their news article.
HOW COULD THIS HAVE BEEN PREVENTED?
There were no funds lost in this case. Any giveaways where you need to send cryptocurrency first are going to be a scam.
