Data compiled by Woofun AI shows that Polymarket, a crypto prediction market platform, faces allegations of compensating dozens of creators, predominantly college-aged individuals, to produce betting videos on pages mimicking its official interface. An examination of 1,105 videos posted by 10 creators since December indicates that approximately 70% featured betting content, with roughly $1.9 million in displayed wagers confirmed as non-existent transactions.

Monitored by Woofun AI, specific instances reveal significant discrepancies between portrayed outcomes and reality. One January video featured student George Makihara celebrating a $100,000 win on a bet that Donald Trump would mention 'McDonald’s,' yet footage was filmed two months early, and over 50 actual accounts on the platform lost money on that event. Creators utilized test environments, including the misspelled domain 'poiymarket.com,' displaying nearly $900,000 in fictitious gains across 118 videos, whereas actual outcomes would have resulted in losses exceeding $166,000. Receiving $2,000 to $3,000 monthly under non-disclosure terms, these creators operated under instructions to hide the collaboration. Polymarket has stated its commitment to accurate markets and plans a comprehensive audit of promotional content.
