Versions of this hoax warning have been circulating since early 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The hoax is reminiscent of a 2016 \u00a0fake-news message that claimed that clicking a post about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.net\/donald-trump-arrested-virus-hoax\/\">Donald Trump being arrested<\/a> would install a virus. And, similar hoax variants have warned users not to open videos showing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.net\/dance-pope-phone-virus-hoax\/\">Pope<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.net\/dance-of-the-hillary-phone-virus-hoax\/\">Hillary Clinton<\/a> dancing because doing so would launch a virus that would format your mobile phone.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing such false information will not help anybody stay safe online. \u00a0 If you receive one of these messages, just delete it. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0355887770822260\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"9162856233\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Do Use Caution When Following Links<\/h2>\n<p>While the &#8216;Trump Suffering from Stroke&#8221; message is a hoax, you should certainly use caution when following links in posts about celebrities \u00a0or high-profile political figures such as Donald Trump.
