FALSE
“Lemon water on an empty stomach cures cancer 🍋”

There is no scientific evidence that lemon cures or prevents cancer. It is a viral myth that has circulated in WhatsApp chains for years.

A lie is 0% more likely to be reshared than the truth. How many did you forward without knowing?

MIT study · Science, 2018

Alarmist voice notes, photos ripped out of context, “breaking news” no one confirmed. Disinformation travels faster than the truth. And in Colombia it runs through WhatsApp, among family and friends.

4 in 10 Colombians can’t reliably tell a fake news story from a real one.

    If it’s new, Claude investigates it with live web search, cross-checks what it finds, and never invents sources: it only cites what it can back up.

Four verdicts, no hedging.

We tell you plainly where it landed, why, and with which sources.

FALSE
“Shakira publicly asked people to vote for a presidential candidate”

There is no record of any such statement. The supposed quote spread during the 2022 election and fact-checkers found no source backing it.

MISLEADING
“This riot video is from Colombia, this week”

The video is real, but it’s from another country and another date. Pulling genuine footage out of context is the most common form of disinformation.

TRUE
“Colombia has more bird species than any other country”

True. With over 1,900 recorded species, Colombia leads the world in bird diversity, per the Humboldt Institute and scientific databases.

UNVERIFIED
“An anonymous voice note says the banks close tomorrow”

We found no official source or fact-checker confirming or denying it. Better not to forward until we know.

False. One of the most viral hoaxes of the pandemic, debunked by the WHO and dozens of fact-checkers. No vaccine contains microchips or antennas.
