Today my Instagram has been FLOODING me with what I think are all scam coffee companies. They’re all low followers, websites have all of the same products/layouts, has anyone else been getting these? It seems all of the websites will take your money too, I bet nothing shows up to your house.
It seems the coffee culture has been pretty free of stuff like this until now, hopefully there’s a way to help People not support this.

Unfortunately with the rise of AI, it’s bound to infect almost every aspect of our daily lives.
Tbh, stop using instagram. It cares only to keep users engaged at any cost, and that includes feeding people AI slop.
As far as these slop companies go – if youve got access to tech and labor, create 100 “shadow kitchen”-style coffee brands, and if one or two of them can get ad engagement, bam, you’ve got multiple streams of income. It’s predatory, and your attention to the app is their prey.
Don’t worry – after AI data centers use up all your clean water, you won’t be able to brew coffee anymore, anyway.
Wouldn’t trust anything from an ad.
There are companies that do white labeling so you just have to slap on some branding and build a website and they’ll ship it out for you. Super low barrier to entry so now everyone and their mother can try to sell you some mediocre coffee they know nothing about.
