Here’s the text of a message I received this morning.

“Do you want to receive CASH from President Trump and DOGE’s WASTE CUTTING?”

The link to click on is red-win.co, so I assume it’s a site to enter your name and email for a chance to win cash, which serves two purposes—promote the lie that Musk is addressing fraud and saving money and collect more email addresses for future grifting.

The MAGA cult is gullible enough to fall for these tactics.
