TikTok Bulletin: Crackdown on Black-Market Fraudulent Campaigns Behind “Group-Buy Duck Feasts” Trend

TikTok’s “Goose Banquet Group Dining” trend sparked debates on content moderation after viral videos disguised coordinated financial services ads, including unregulated loans. Platforms removed content via AI audits, restricted accounts, and pledged AI-human collaboration to counter algorithmic manipulation. The incident highlights challenges in governing Web3.0 ecosystems, with industry studies noting $3.5B yearly ad losses from fake engagement and significant trust erosion risks.

By CNBC AI News May 19, 2025 – A mysterious wave of TikTok videos themed “Goose Banquet Group Dining” has captured attention across China’s digital space, sparking debates about content moderation and platform accountability in the modern social media era.

During the weekend surge in engagement, a prominent digital ethics commentator directly addressed concerns via public post: “Within 24 hours, replicated captions have spread narratives that challenge cultural norms while undermining platform credibility through coordinated manipulation.

TikTok’s official response, released through the “TikTok Bulletin Board” yesterday evening, revealed technical audits identified embedded financial services advertisements camouflaged within viral content: “Automated pattern recognition flagged clear indicators of coordinated gray-market operations designed to artificially inflate metrics while promoting unregulated lending products.

The platform detailed multi-phase enforcement measures: “All related content has been systemically removed through reverse-engineered content scanning, with implicated accounts receiving communication privileges restrictions commensurate with violation severity.” The statement emphasized sustained investment in “AI+human” countermeasures to combat algorithmic manipulation attempts.
