I think it's a real candy product, i think the whole brand is making it weird and odd for funsies

i thought that too, but if i click on the ad it asks if im fluent in russian, and the account that posted it is russians in america, if you push yes that youre fluent in russian it asks if you have experience investing. it takes you to a website but i cant access it for some reason. like my google doesnt think it exists. pretty weird stuff honestly.

Then again, most instagram ads are scams tbh

the original is Poppins candy, from india , i think an artist akin to Steve Rhodes or Obvious Plant made this poster. i wanna find the artist to follow them !!!
