The scam began with a young man on social media claiming his mother designs sea glass art from glass she collects by the sea. He asked me to check out her page and support her by buying her crafts. There is a social media page showing an old woman collecting sea glass and all of her handcrafted items. The woman appears to be speaking in many of the videos. Now I know they were AI-generated—there is no such old woman or sea glass crafts. The website states they are in the USA, but in fact it was a China-based company.
