The new scam spreading on Facebook is titled – “Demi Moore Catches Ashton Kutcher Cheating on Video” and has a message – “The real reason Demi Moore is divorcing Ashton! Caught red handed, cheating with a stripper”
The message claims to show you a video of Ashton Kutcher being busted by Demi Moore as she caught him cheat on her with a stripper. This is a scam message that is spreading on Facebook. Please DO NOT click on the link provided with the message.
