Richardson Hartley Law has appeared in the national and regional media for the past six months warning about deepfake Martin Lewis adverts.

The scam ads show the money saving expert seemingly promoting a number of investment schemes.

Two of the most common frauds that the deepfake Martin Lewis videos promote are Quantum AI and XTradeMax.

Together these two schemes are believed to have stolen tens of millions of pounds from the UK public.

Scammers are posting these deepfake videos across every social media platform including Facebook, Instagram and X.

For people unaware of how easy it is to produce these deepfake videos the schemes seem incredibly convincing.

Martin Richardson, a senior partner at Richardson Hartley Law, said: “Scammers are playing on Martin Lewis’s good name to steal money from unsuspecting investors.

“We have cases where individuals have lost hundreds of thousands of pounds.

“More should be done to stop these deepfake Martin Lewis ads from appearing across social media.”
