The Cuban singer and content creator La Diosa (Dianelys Alfonso Cartaya) posted a reel on her Instagram account in which she harshly criticized the influencers who promote online casino games among their followers, describing the practice as deceptive and morally objectionable.
«It boils my blood when I see influencers, people who have followers, followers who have trusted them, followers who have placed them where they are and do this kind of thing,» the artist stated in the video, which garnered over 1,600 "likes" and 196 comments in just a few hours.
The Goddess explained the mechanism that, according to her, operates behind these campaigns: content creators record fake videos simulating winnings to attract their followers to gaming platforms and receive ongoing payments as long as they continue to draw in new users.
"I have received messages from many people offering to pay me well for stories for some casino games, where I supposedly had to make a fake video showing myself winning money and so on," he revealed, adding that he always rejected those proposals: "I never wanted to get involved in that."
The artist pointed out that some content creators offer appliances and phones as incentives, arguing that "it doesn't matter if you win or lose, the issue is that you participate and play."
According to La Diosa, the scheme is designed for the user to always lose: "What they are offering is worth less than what they are charging to keep bringing people into the game. It’s always a win-win for the influence."
The singer also revealed that other Cuban influencers on social media had consulted her about these proposals, and in all cases, she advised them not to get involved, warning them that sooner or later their own followers would hold them accountable.
"When tomorrow people come to you saying that all of this is wrong... don't get angry afterwards," he warned them directly.
The most emotional part of their message pointed to those who are the real victims of these practices: "The followers you have are mothers who are struggling, mothers who are scraping the floor to earn a few coins in this country just to put a meal on the table for their children."
The Goddess made it clear that her intervention is not motivated by any personal interest: "I have no need to watch over anyone's finances, but I simply feel it is my duty as an artist to advise you not to fall into that."
In mid-September, La Diosa had already criticized TikTok academies and the so-called "course sellers," accusing them of charging high monthly fees in exchange for advice of little value. In June, she warned her followers about a dangerous phishing scam circulating on social media, and at the beginning of the year, she revealed that she had fallen victim to a fraud of 80,000 dollars in the United States.
" gentlemen, have a little respect for your followers. Have a bit of respect for the people who have placed you where you are," La Diosa concluded her message, in what was one of the most direct warnings a Cuban public figure has issued against this practice.
