**Executive summary:** Malwarebytes documents a widespread international scam campaign that buys ads and creates thousands of fake news-style websites to promote fraudulent investment platforms (e.g., Eclipse Earn, Solara Vynex, Trap10), lures victims to provide contact details, and uses 'friendly advisors' to extract deposits and fees; the report describes tactics, scale (17,000 sites across 50 countries), red flags to spot the scam, and mitigation steps.
