Note the little blue/white avatar in the top left?

That's a guarantee of a scam offer. This icon is well used by deep-fake video advertisers in South Africa.

They frequently use celebrities, banks etc. to lure people into investments as low as R4000 and the up the value once the victim is sucked in.

These international call centers work from within SA and abroad and are responsible for hundreds of millions of losses.

If you see this rubbish -report it and move on.
