Fake news about the sale and price of Petrobras gasoline in Paraguay
The information fell like a bomb on social networks, in particular, on Facebook and left many drivers angry. Despite this, the story is nothing but balela.
It is enough to look at the publications to realize that they have several characteristics of fake news on the internet, such as the vague character (there are no dates), alarmism, errors in Portuguese and the lack of reliable sources.
In addition, given the fuel situation in Brazil, several false stories about the subject have been circulating on the internet.
In summary: the story that says that gasoline exported from Brazil is sold at R$2,62 in Paraguay, in 2021, is false! The video is actually old and circulating at least since 2018 on the internet.
In addition, when looking for the price of a liter of gasoline in Paraguay, it can be seen that the price is much higher than that suggested in the video, ranging from R$4 to R$6,55. In other words, the story is nothing but fake news! Don't share.
