UK financial Guru Martin Lewis says big tech firms are the ones responsible for scam ads... not Bitcoin!

Martin Lewis is a major British financial journalist that has focused his career on helping the public with money saving. He's often spearheaded major campaigns against the banks, energy companies etc to help consumers. He also does lots of work for charity.

Martin has recently been given the accolade of the "most trusted man in Britain".

Dispite not doing adverts his face has regularly appeared in scam ads pushing fake Bitcoin investment scams. Unlike many mainstream financial journalists (although he doesn't tend to comment on Bitcoin investment) he has always had the good grace to point out that often these scam ads are nothing to do with him or Bitcoin itself.

He squarely blames major tech firms for the hosting of these scam Ads on their platforms for which they are being paid.

He took legal action against Facebook and agreed a £3m settlement which he donated to charity however points out that Facebook confined to run these scam ads and are seem to be doing little to protect people from them.
