New hoax, and this time it is released by a foreign "news" site. And we mention this as there are "experts" who write in well-known Greek blogs, known for the collection clicks και likes, ότι Ελληνικές ιστοσελίδες δημιουργούν hoax, για να συλλέγουν clicks. Ευτυχώς το διαδικτυακό κοινό μπορεί και κρίνει, ποια είναι η πληροφόρηση και ποια η κινδυνολογία, το πόσο σημαντική είναι η έγκαιρη ενημέρωση σε θέματα ασφαλείας και ποιες “φυλλάδες” χρησιμοποιούν συνομωσιολογίες για να επιβιώσουν.

The news was posted by our friends at Secnews.gr we republish it as it is:
Not all of them are true information circulating on the internet, but many users fall prey to all sorts of traps, more or less elaborate.
One of them comes from the satirical websiteσελίδα of National Report, when an article reports that some Americans have unknowingly implanted an RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) chip.
Including a reference to a study conducted by Wyoming Institute of Technology (WIT) scientists, the National Report article seems convincing. However, WIT's information is also of a dubious nature.
False news spread through social networks, where it was estimated with thousands of "Likes" and notifications, according to online sources, and claims that implantation of RFID to US citizens occurs during dental work, but it can be done in any other point of the body.
False news says the purpose of the chip is to reveal "personal identities, including social security numbers, and medical records."
All that is reported in the news is false and reports from the National Report and the Wyoming Institute of Technology (WIT) are aimed at satire.
