“Sister, I’m in the hospital bed with an infusion”! Starting in three days and earning more than 10,000 a month, AI digital people are emptying your wallet

Blue Whale News, February 18 (Reporter Lu Pengpeng)“Sister, I’m in the hospital bed with an infusion. Sister, can you buy something in my window? rdquo; In a self-media account, a digital person is interpreting a script carefully compiled by the operator. What is sad is that many elderly people in the comment area believed this, left messages to comfort them, and even placed orders directly to purchase goods.

Blue Whale News reporters found that a large number of digital human video accounts have appeared on major Short Video platforms recently. Such accounts create fake elite profiles to quickly create content of interest to middle-aged and elderly people. Finally, operators use video traffic sharing and window shopping model to monetize.

“Sister, I’m in the hospital bed with an infusion”

Create a virtual human design to trick users into placing orders

How does digital human video harvest the elderly?

Open a certain Short Video platform and search for keywords such as health, wellness, financial investment or emotional consultation, you can see a large number of expert accounts. They either wear suits and shoes and talk eloquently about investment; some are gentle and gentle and talk about the secrets of health preservation; or some are sincere and sincere, answering emotional puzzles for fans.

What’s more, by releasing first-person care words, the emotional needs of elderly users are used to induce and attract traffic and bring goods for profit.

For example, in an account named Brother Wang Jianguo, the video shows a man sitting upright in a suit and shoes, baby sister, dear baby, I want to fly to find you, I really can’t hold it anymore, I want to spend the rest of my life with you, waiting for words to come.“”“” In a certain video, the man even said that he was receiving an infusion in a hospital bed, and finally induced users to buy products in his window.

At first glance, the video content released by such accounts is well-made, professional in views and true in emotions. However, in fact, the video is not a real person, but a virtual digital person generated by AI technology.

It is worth noting that even though some video prompts are produced by AI, there are many elderly people who are deceived. For example, the comment area of Brother Wang Jianguo is full of enthusiastic interactions from middle-aged and elderly users, and some elderly people even believe that a man is using an infusion in a hospital bed.

“The old man had no understanding of this new technology and thought that the videos were all real, so he was deceived by them in a few words. I don’t know how many nutritional products and health products I bought from their window windows, but I can’t finish them all. AI digital person video scams are simply a dimension reduction blow to the elderly.& rdquo; More than one interviewee told Blue Whale reporter that their parents were addicted to such videos and couldn’t extricate themselves.

The industrial chain behind digital people leading goods

Hundreds of videos are produced in one day, and the monthly income exceeds 10,000 in three days

A survey by Blue Whale reporters found that on the Short Video platform, there are not a few people who use digital people to operate accounts. These accounts often have highly similar characteristics, including the same background, characters, and even the same sitting posture and demeanor. The only difference is the content broadcast by digital people, which covers emotional exchanges, Chinese culture, traditional Chinese medicine health care, leisure and health care, etc. In multiple fields, there is always one that can hit the pain point of the elderly, thus attracting a lot of attention.

On this track, there are even self-media tutors who teach people how to start a number. The Blue Whale reporter contacted one of them and asked him about the whole process of making a number.

The first step: Build numbers in batches, first determine the video content, and target the emotions, health and other content of the elderly. Then use AI tools such as Deepseek, Doubao, and Kimi on the market to automatically generate video copy.

Step 2: Use digital human software to create a video, upload a short video you have recorded and clone it. Enter the copy in step 1, and the software will automatically generate a video of the character playing the copy. All subsequent videos will follow this step.

Step 3: After accumulating a certain amount of traffic on the account, open a window to bring goods. It is necessary to pay attention to the consistent positioning of products brought in goods and videos, try to avoid cosmetics and clothing, and target low-priced and low-return products such as health foods and department stores.

“With the help of AI tools, in theory, 100 videos can be created in one day. Following the above steps, the number can be started in at least 3 days. There are also many ways to monetize, including creative sharing, Short Video or live broadcasts, advertising monetization, etc. Students can easily earn more than 10,000 a month.& rdquo;

The self-media mentor said that digital people can not only be used to make Short Video, but also live broadcast to bring goods. The intervention of digital people in the e-commerce field can be said to be a major change. Nowadays, the technology is very complete, and basically it can be used as a fake. In addition, the audience is basically the elderly and has low awareness of AI technology, so the traffic is very large, it is easy to make big money, and it is also easy to make money.

Can people lie down and make money with numbers?

In the past, health and emotional tracks were the hardest hit areas for harvesting the elderly. Now that digital human technology continues to improve, this track has emerged again. What can be seen is that a gray industrial chain has developed behind the digital human video of harvesting the elderly.

It is worth noting that most digital person software on the market currently requires fees, so a number of companies that provide digital person production services have also been born.

Blue Whale reporter learned from a digital figure production company that the current service prices for making digital figures on the market range from 5,000 to 10,000 yuan. Merchants will help customers build digital human images and guide the operation of accounts. In addition to ordinary Short Video, digital humans can also be used to carry goods live. After setting the prompt words, the audience can also interact with questions.

“Digital people + emotional value + low-priced goods, a hit combination of boxing has made many self-media companies make a lot of money, but this does not mean that they can make money lying down. It is worth noting that although the digital man’s routine of harvesting the elderly starts quickly, it also hides many hidden dangers.

In 2024, Douyin repeatedly issued governance announcements on improper use of AI to generate virtual characters. The announcement stated that there were still accounts in the station that improperly used AI technology to generate content posted by virtual characters, and the platform had severely dealt with it.

Including creating the image of a soldier, please, don’t slip away, the child wants to talk to you Dear mother, I am on a mission, give me some encouragement and tell you a little secret, click on the small plus sign below my avatar and other tones, Use the positive image of the soldier and the elderly’s mentality of missing their children to defraud the elderly to interact.

For such content, the platform will remove illegal videos, cancel illegal accounts, cancel their contribution and profit rights, ban accounts, etc.

A self-media practitioner told Blue Whale reporter: Harvesting the elderly track is not as easy as imagined. Sometimes, you may not be able to produce a number even after making 10 numbers. The most important thing is that it is easy to violate regulations, especially content such as emotion, health care, and health care. The easier the content is to be numbered, the easier it is to touch the red line. Currently, the platform is very hard to crack down on such videos, and sometimes it is finally difficult to get a number. It was blocked. rdquo;
