The Elon Musk energy-saving scam works by using flashy online ads, unsolicited emails and other deceptive tactics to lure victims.

Scammers promote so-called "revolutionary" devices through social media, pop-ups, emails and even search engine ads, claiming the products are backed by Musk .

These ads often include fake customer reviews, exaggerated claims of slashing electricity bills by 50% or more.

Always check the sender's email address and look for signs of a fake message.

Avoid clicking on any links or downloading attachments from these emails.

Don't fall for "too good to be true" deals that seem too good to pass up.
