CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 11, 2023--

A TikTok user has issued a warning about an alleged dog scam circulating online. Noah (@noahglenncarter) claimed that people are sharing a photo of an injured dog named Danny covered in porcupine needles that need to be removed at the vet for a fee. He alleged that many accounts are cropping up online dedicated to helping Danny the dog – but they're all fake. "I really hope that not many people have fallen for this so far, but I highly doubt that because if you see this on your FYP, I imagine that you're gonna want to try as much as you can," Noah said. "Without knowing they're just trying to get your money from you, you're probably going to want to help this dog because it looks very, very painful." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Noah's clip was soon flooded with comments from fellow users: "THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT THIS!!! It’s gotten so out of hand that it’s honestly tiring now," one person wrote Another added: "I swear I saw that picture in 2022 or so." Meanwhile, a third added: "This is wild, who in their right mind would ever do this." @noahglenncarter People are using this dog Danny to take what you have #foryou #danny #savedanny #foryou #dog The 'Danny photo' used in Noah's video originates from the JMK9 Dog Training Facebook page. In April, the page shared the image of the dog, writing: "This little lady couldn’t help herself and ran down a Porcupine. Any of the 3 most important commands in the world would have saved her from these daggers. Come, Leave It, Place. Don’t wait for your dog to come back to the house looking like a GSP / Porcupine Hybrid to teach these things." According to Know Your Meme, a TikTok account called "@savedannyy" cropped up online, with a slideshow of the dog. It reportedly asked for $900 to get the quills removing and provided a CashApp link to send money. Have your say in our news democracy.

Apple will hold a “special event” in the coming days, it has revealed. The live streamed event will almost certainly see the launch of the new iPhone 15 and Apple Watch Series 9, but could bring other products too. Apple will hold the event on 12 September, at 10am local pacific time, or 5pm in the UK, it said. Apple gave no clues about what that launch might include in its invitation. It only showed a picture of the Apple logo being swept away as if it was made of sand – and a single word to describe the event. Apple has hinted at the contents of previous events in its invitations. Last year, for instance, it called the event “Far Out” and included a picture of stars – which turned out to be a reference to the satellite communication technology in the iPhone 14. This year’s image does include the colours that have been rumoured to be included in the iPhone 15 Pro lineup. Reports have suggested that will include four hues: a deep blue, a black, and a lighter and darker shade of grey. Beyond those colours, the iPhone 15 Pro and Max are set to include a new and faster chip, a new action button on the side, a slightly different design with smaller bezels and titanium frame, and better battery life. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is also rumoured to include a new periscope camera that will allow for further zoom without adding extra bulk to the lens. The non-Pro versions of the iPhone 15 will largely be brought in line with the existing iPhone 14 Pro, rumours have suggested, though all the new phones will get a USB-C port. That will include getting its faster A16 Bionic chip, the dynamic island at the top of the display that replaced the notch and an improved camera. The event will be live streamed from Apple Park. Since the pandemic, Apple has moved away from holding onstage events, instead producing small films that are broadcast live online and shown to press at a screening at its Apple Park campus.
