A viral Facebook post exploded across timelines in late November 2025, claiming Elon Musk secretly met Virginia Giuffre’s parents on December 12, offering $40 million to produce Punishing the Power Elite—a film exposing her Epstein trauma—only to crumble under scrutiny as a blatant AI-generated hoax from Vietnam-based pages like uschecknews24h.com.
The fabricated story, shared by dubious accounts including “USCheckNews24h” and “World Animals Daily,” featured doctored images of Musk with Sky and Amanda Roberts, alongside a fake press release quoting Musk: “Virginia’s truth deserves the biggest screen.” It amassed 10 million views before Meta removals, trending #MuskGiuffreFilm with 3.2 million posts (75% outraged at alleged elite silence).
Fact-checkers—Snopes, Lead Stories, and Reuters—debunked it by December 1, tracing origins to “Viet Spam” networks using ElevenLabs voice cloning and Runway ML visuals. Musk’s verified X shows no such meeting or pledge; his 2025 posts focus on Tesla and politics, with past Epstein mentions limited to file speculation. Giuffre’s family denied contact, calling it “cruel exploitation” of her April 25 suicide and memoir Nobody’s Girl (October 21, 2025).
The hoax preyed on Epstein Files Transparency Act disclosures (December 19 deadline), blending real scrutiny with fiction. No film or meeting exists. As Giuffre’s truth endures unvarnished, such fakes underscore AI’s 2025 threat: manufactured drama drowning authentic survivor voices.
