itel Warns of Legal Action Over Viral Fake Power Tank Image

itel has issued a warning regarding potential legal action against individuals who disseminate false claims about its products, following the viral circulation of an AI-generated image that purportedly showed an itel Power Tank portable power station exploding. The image was shared on social media by a user named Enori, who claimed the device exploded due to overcharging. itel clarified that the image did not represent a real incident and was fabricated.

In an official disclaimer, itel expressed its commitment to addressing deliberate attempts to damage its reputation through manipulated content. The company stated it would pursue legal remedies to protect its customers and brand.

Enori later deleted the post and acknowledged the misinformation, accepting responsibility for the confusion caused. The incident underscores the challenges companies face as AI-generated images become increasingly realistic, complicating the distinction between genuine incidents and fabrications.
