An AI recreation of Chief Minister Alf Cannan is promising Facebook users they can make a fortune using a new government trading platform.
Scam adverts have been appearing on Facebook - featuring a convincing video of Mr Cannan created using artificial intelligence.
In it, he promises people can make 800 "Manx pounds" a week by giving him just £190.
And in the video, created to fool users into handing over personal or financial information, Mr Cannan promises something unusual:
Gaiety announces special panto performance
Covid jab injury report due next year, says minister
Put spiritual protections before digital ID, says petition
Inflation level in November, says government
Port St Mary road closure extended
Two Manxman sailings rescheduled tonight
Police issue reminder over firearm certificates
No housing plans approved on agricultural land, says minister
