Tom Hanks has a cautionary message for fans.
The Oscar winner shared a public service announcement to Instagram on Aug. 29, alerting fans to some AI-generated ads that he said were “falsely using my name, likeness, and voice promoting miracle cures and wonder drugs.”
Noting that the ads were created “without my consent, fraudulently, and through AI,” the type 2 diabetic shared that he solely works with “a board certified doctor” to treat the condition and cautioned others to avoid the unendorsed products.
“Don’t be fooled,” the 68-year-old wrote. “Don’t be swindled. Don’t lose your hard earned money.”
Back in 2013, the Forrest Gump star opened up about his Type 2 diabetes diagnosis.
“I went to the doctor and he said, ‘You know those high blood sugar numbers you’ve been dealing with since you were 36? Well, you’ve graduated,’” Hanks told David Letterman on The Late Show. “‘You’ve got Type 2 diabetes, young man.’”
