A link is being shared on social media which redirects to an alleged Aaj Tak news article on the Penirun capsule, touted as a solution for erectile dysfunction. Let’s verify this through this article.
Claim: Aaj Tak news report on the Penirun capsule, a medicine made with 100% natural ingredients to treat Erectile Dysfunction.
Fact: The weblink is made to resemble the Aaj Tak website, but the web address of this link is different from that of Aaj Tak. This link is being used to promote a product known as the Penirun capsule. No articles were published on this capsule on the official website of Aaj Tak. Hence the claim made in this post is FALSE.
Upon careful observation, one can notice that the URL of this webpage which looks like the news website Aaj Tak does not contain the words Aaj Tak, in it. The actual URL of Aaj Tak website is ‘https://www.aajtak.in/‘, and the domain name of the viral web link is ‘candies.vintage-store.uk.’
Upon searching for further details about this phishing website, we found that the domain name candies.vintage-store.uk was registered on 7 June 2022. Clicking on the home page buttons on this viral link leads to the purchase box of the product Penirun capsule, where it asks for sensitive information like name and phone number.
We searched the internet with relevant keywords to know if Aaj Tak had published an article on the Penirun capsule but found no relevant information. The viral weblink is just a ploy to lure users into buying the product shown and is being done under the guise of Aaj Tak. Factly recommends that all readers cross-verify such links and the details of the products sold through them before purchasing or entering sensitive (read and read) personal information. Factly has also debunked a few similar scams earlier (here and here). We have noticed a growing trend in such fraudulent links being shared under the guise of some famous personality or brand promoting it.

To sum up, a fraudulent web link is being shared through social media in the guise of an Aaj Tak news report on Penirun capsule.
