A video of an alleged fight in the studio of Croatian Radiotelevision (HRT) is spreading online, but HRT quickly denied any connection to the footage. The fake news is accompanied by a headline claiming a prominent Croatian cardiologist was attacked for revealing confidential information. Although the video looks like it was filmed at HRT, the background shows men fighting in the studio, which is completely fabricated.
HRT warns that such scams are becoming more frequent and often target celebrities and social media users. Scammers use sophisticated methods to extract money or personal data from people. Even verified profiles on social media are not always safe, as hackers can take over accounts or scammers can bypass security measures.
This type of identity theft and user manipulation is a serious problem. People often fall victim to fake posts that can damage the reputation of public figures and cause financial losses to ordinary users.
HRT, as the largest and most influential media house in Croatia, has been known for professionalism for decades, as well as personal conflicts among employees. However, these fake videos and information have no relation to real events in their studios.
In an era where social media is flooded with fake news and scams, it is crucial to be cautious and not fall for sensational videos and headlines. If you see something suspicious, verify the sources and avoid spreading panic without evidence.
