One of the reasons that are causing old fake news to circulate again is the growth of new forms of content creation. We already talked about an A Week in Fakes that apps like TikTok and Kwai have been very used in jokes like this. Today, we have another example of content “reheated”. A video of a man saying that former president Lula would have 250 million euros in a bank in the Vatican is circulating on the Internet. “Lula has 250 millions of euros hidden in the Vatican Bank”, says the message circulating out there along with the video. ## Does Lula have 250 million euros hidden in a bank in the Vatican? The accusation did not take long to spread with all its might on the Internet. Although, It is not true that such an account was discovered in Lula's Vatican. In In fact, this nonsense has already been denied on Boatos.org on other occasions. As the denial of yesteryear is valid today, remember what was written: _In reality, there is more to remember than to explain. That's because the one document “presented as evidence” by the supposed priest in the video (and by the loose messages on Facebook which, by the way, have the main characteristics of online rumors and even “wrong” the value presented in the video) has already had its proven falsehood. Remember what we wrote about the “evidence” in the “case Mature":_ _Research on this story also indicated something else: the case is a evolution of a rumor started in January 2019, in Colombia. At the time, a report had reported that the former president of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos, would have secret accounts at the Vatican. As a bonus, the text also indicated that ‘other leftist presidents’ (Maduro, Lula, Kirchner) would also be involved in the scheme._ _That was when the Vatican decided to speak out and deny all the information. One day after the publication of the article, Santa Sede stated that, contrary to From what the report suggests, no Latin American leader has accounts secret in the Vatican banks. As if that wasn't enough, after a few days, a Colombian fact-checking website decided to analyze the case. AND well, they came to the conclusion that the story was… false!_ _According to the Colombia Check page, the Institute for Works of Religion (IOR or also known as Vatican Bank) is not a normal bank. To the transfers are intended for religious work or charity. In addition Furthermore, since 2013, on an annual basis, the institute has published financial reports of its operations._ _The website also draws attention to the fact that the evidence used in the report are inconsistent. In the letter from the president of the IOR, for example, it is possible to see that the signature was cut from another document and pasted onto the letter. In addition Furthermore, the documents are written in Spanish and not Italian (official language of the Vatican)._ _Another inconsistency is the interest rate presented in the supposed IOR letter. THE president of the Chamber of Commerce of Cali warned that a rate of 9% in a European bank is impossible. He further indicated that, in these places, rates annual rates are usually close to 0._ _Finally, if the source of the information in Colombia was considered false, the ‘evolution of rumor’ in Venezuela is also not real, since the story emerged from the report that has already been refuted in Colombian lands._ _Let's recap. The story that is being presented as recent in this interview carried out in Argentina appeared in Colombia and had already been denied there and in Venezuela. After the “bomb interview”, Bolivian websites also denied the information. If everything that had been said was not enough, there are other documents that were presented against Evo Morales and, in reality, are fake._ _In other words: the “documentary evidence” that would have been presented against the President Lula have already been classified as false in several countries South America and the Vatican itself. It is to be assumed that if the document is demonstrably false with Santos, Maduro and Morales continues to be false with Lula, Kirchner, Bachelet, Correa and many others who come._ In short: the story that suggests that Lula's account was discovered is false worth 250 million euros in the Vatican. This is fake news that only it returned to circulation in 2022 because it was shared on social media different. Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
